About this tag
The non-metallic tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about using non-metallic materials, such as fiberglass or reinforced plastic, in water heating systems. A featured thread explores a high-efficiency water heater design that employs a non-metallic tank with an internal conductive metal mesh to generate eddy currents for rapid heating. The concept emphasizes corrosion resistance and durability, contrasting with traditional metallic tanks. While the tag is niche, it reflects interest in alternative engineering approaches for heating applications, focusing on material science and energy efficiency.

Idea to create a very high efficiency water heating system that is not in main stream that works on eddy currents.
Develop a large non-metallic water tank that utilizes eddy currents to efficiently and rapidly heat water. This system will feature a conductive mesh made of non-rusting metal inside the tank, with an external coil generating eddy currents to provide faster heating than traditional methods...- Johncoool
