Smart water heating reimagined with predictive controls, app integration, and future-ready design.

Cala Systems has reinvented the water heater with intelligence at its core. Instead of simply heating water when the tank cools, Cala predicts household usage, runs at the most efficient times, and delivers up to 50% more hot water with its built-in mixing valve. Backed by advanced sensors, a variable-speed compressor, and a user-friendly app, Cala transforms water heating into a connected, reliable, and sustainable experience.

Smarter by Design

With predictive intelligence, Cala learns your home’s daily rhythm — from morning showers to evening laundry — and adjusts automatically to keep comfort high while keeping bills low. Its app and installer portal also provide real-time insights, proactive maintenance alerts, and seamless integration with solar or battery systems, ensuring your water heater works with your home, not against it

Your water heater should save money, not drain it.

Cala is built to deliver both comfort and savings. Priced at $2,850 before rebates and tax incentives, it quickly becomes one of the most affordable long-term choices for homeowners once you factor in rebates, tax credits, and dramatically lower annual energy use. Compared to natural gas, electric resistance, oil, or propane systems, Cala can save families thousands of dollars over its lifetime while cutting energy use by more than half.

Unlock Your Savings

But Cala isn’t just about cost. It’s about intelligence. With predictive controls, an integrated mixing valve, and app-based insights, Cala ensures hot water is always ready when you need it — while running at the most efficient times of day. And with features like solar synchronization, outage preparation, and a 10-year transferable warranty, Cala brings more than hot water: it brings peace of mind and a future-ready home.
