AutoBooster™ DELIVERS HOT
WATER SOLUTION FOR RESORT
COMMUNITY HOMES
THE CHALLENGE
Wyndham Branson at the Meadows
Resort needed to replace outdated water
heating equipment with a solution that
ensured guest satisfaction, as excellence
in customer service is a cornerstone of the
resort’s operations.
Limitations in available space, varied
layouts, and narrow closet doors
presented the greatest challenge as new,
80-gallon tank-type units would no longer
be an option. The resort needed to nd a
way to produce the same amount of hot
water with a different technology.
The resort tested a heat pump water
heater; but high cost, size, and installing
louvers to closet doors were unreasonable.
A mixing valve type booster was tested;
but limited hot water output and shorter
tank lifespan due to higher set point
(140°F) was not acceptable.
Overall, cost effectiveness and scalability
became the key factors inuencing
decision making when selecting a product
that could be paired with both new, and
existing, electric or gas, water heating
tank-type systems.
Eemax® provided a solution with AutoBooster that increased deliverable
hot water with more cost-ecient, space-saving equipment.
THE SOLUTION
Eemax was able to offer a solution
with AutoBooster. When paired with
a 50-gallon electric tank, the system
now delivers hot water equivalent to an
80-gallon capacity output. Cost t within
expectations and installation was easily
handled by one team.
105 AutoBoosters have been in operation
for over a year—with zero callbacks.
Outcomes from the rst phase of this
project being so favorable, plans were
initiated to further expand the installation
of AutoBoosters. In addition, Wyndham
Branson established a long term goal
for the next 3 to 5 years to supplement
any unit repair or maintenance with
AutoBooster.
Eemax is committed to providing
innovative water heating solutions
and was able to collaborate on-site
with principle stake holders, and to
help facilitate product education and
installation training.
It is my responsibility
to ensure our guests
and owners experience
exceptional service and
comfort during their stay.
Eemax has denitely made
meeting this objective
possible. My experience
with AutoBooster has been
very gratifying. Our guest
satisfaction and comfort
ratings continue to excel.
