Introduction / Webasto
The Webasto marine water heater
- Heating water to heat living environment and domestic hot water in yachts.
- The water is heated by a diesel burning combustion engine.
- Two different engines.
- A buffertank is placed separately.

Introduction / Product
Introduction / Product
Restrictions
- Keep it operating quiet
- Keep multiple capacities available
- Keep hot domestic hot water option possible
- Maintain Webasto engine, with the need of servicing
Introduction / Project
Problems
- Bad market share
- Competitors are cheaper
- Unreliable reputation
- Underdeveloped looks
- Non-uniform platform
So
- Create a uniform platform for both engines
- Restyle current waterstations
- Make it better ordened/understandable
- Make them function easier
- Make the installation easier
- Increase market/share
Introduction / Project
Conceptual directions / Working principle
Old principle, but cheaper New principle, more luxurious and innovative

Short evaluation of result
- Clarifying installation, better ordened
- Multiple options for mounting water station
- Uniform platform for multiple capacities
- Consistently restyled product
- Less maintenance because of buffer size
- Simultaniously feed central heating and domestic hot water
- Production costs slightly higher
THE ENDThank you for your attention
