Automated dividend forecasting feature introduced to wealth platform, alongside more than twenty upgrades to existing functionalities
Strong commitment to the industry community by enhancing business development programmes and communication activities

ZUG, Switzerland, July 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Altoo AG, a fintech empowering ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and investment professionals to easily understand every aspect of the complex wealth under their care, announced that its commitment to client satisfaction and innovation has taken the company to new heights in 2024. The company made further progress in implementing its business development strategy and consistently pushed ahead with its innovation projects for the Altoo Wealth Platform.

High satisfaction among growing client base

Since the start of this year, Altoo has welcomed new clients in six countries across three continents and maintained an industry-leading client retention rate.

The substantial growth momentum was primarily attributed to the first six months of the year, which saw a double-digit increase in new clients. The company received an impressive 98% customer satisfaction score from respondents to a survey conducted this March. The ability to effortlessly view all of their assets in one place was rated by 93% of respondents as the Altoo Wealth Platform’s main selling point and the top benefit of utilising this digital wealth management solution. In addition, 64% of respondents indicated that Altoo’s servicing team exceeded or greatly exceeded their expectations.

Besides the continuous growth and investment into the platform Altoo welcomed various new team members to support the continued growth and ensure service and support levels remain as high as of today with expected additional asset volume and overall clientele.

Enhancements to the flagship product

As of this May, the Altoo Wealth Platform – the company’s primary offering, recognised by Forbes for four years running as one of the best family office software solutions – featured automated dividend forecasting. Altoo clients now have an easy way to incorporate upcoming securities dividend payments into their cash flow and liquidity planning. This new feature is one of over twenty technical improvements rolled out during the first half of this year, including enhanced capabilities for monitoring cash flows as well as tagging and filtering asset records.

“These recent upgrades are the latest examples of how we strive to put clients’ needs in the center. Our primary objective is to make managing complex wealth simple for our clients. We want to continuously deliver an even better user experience and strengthen our foundation for future innovation,” explains Ian Keates, CEO of Altoo AG.

Meeting industry and client communication needs

Under the guidance of Ian Keates, a highly experienced technology leader and strong advocate for open finance solutions, Altoo AG has been actively focusing on business development plans, striving to meet the needs of its industry community, and increasing awareness about digital wealth management solutions.

The company attended the Europe Investment Family Office Summit 2024 in Lausanne, Switzerland, and the SFO Week in London, to talk about important industry issues besides connecting to peers and customers.

To continue finding new ways to apply Altoo knowledge, the Altoo Insights Podcast series debuted this March. Its goal has been to shed light on the influence that digitalization and affluent individuals’ evolving expectations have on the wealth management industry. In particular, in the first episode, Ian Keates stressed the importance of investing in modern technology to improve and personalise the client experience.

Noritz upgrades EZ Pro Series of tankless water heaters with larger, multi-function panel display for faster installation and servicing

Published

on

By

Improved, fully integrated diagnostic interface eliminates the need for a separate remote controller, providing key system status data and enhanced digital controls to ease startup, operation, and maintenance for pro installers and service techs.

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Noritz America, an international leader in tankless and electric heat pump water heaters and high-efficiency combination boilers, has further enhanced its EZ Series Pro line of residential condensing tankless water heaters by expanding both the size and the functionality of the units’ built-in control panel, whose user-friendly digital interface is mounted prominently on the front exterior.

Providing upgraded monitoring and diagnostic capabilities, the multi-function panel display allows professional installers to view system status, temperature settings, service reminders, maintenance data, error codes, error history, and (if applicable) recirculation timing settings. All of this vital information is built in and readily accessible on the water heater. Besides eliminating the need for a separate, external remote controller, the panel enables guided setup during installation and faster, more effective troubleshooting.

In addition, installers and users can monitor and program the unit remotely via Bluetooth® connectivity that works alongside the panel, using the EZ Start Plus app on their smartphones. A separate external remote is optional.

“The intent of our upgrade efforts was to create a more satisfying user experience for both the professional and the consumer,” says Noritz Executive Vice President and General Manager Jason Fleming. “We focused on simplified installation, advanced diagnostics, and giving professionals and their customers easier, more responsive control of the water heater.”

Essential Features of the Multi-Function Panel

Below are the main features and capabilities of the upgraded, built-in, multi-function panel and related control system:

Digital temperature control: Professional installers and service technicians will find it easier to use the enlarged panel to set the output water temperature to 100° – 140° Fahrenheit. Temperature settings are available in increments as small as 5°F.

Key benefits: More precise temperature control for professionals and, as a result, safer, more consistent hot-water delivery for end users.

Integrated Bluetooth connectivity; no more dip switches: The EZ Start Plus app enables installers and service techs to perform system setup, adjust the temperature, run diagnostics and share this information electronically with Noritz Technical Support. Installers can even register the water heater to qualify for the accompanying warranty.

Key benefits: Simplified startups mean faster installs, minimizing the manual programming that installers previously had to perform. Smartphone-based control and troubleshooting eliminate the need for old-style manual adjustment of physical dip switches.

Improved service access: Even the physical design of the EZ Series Pro has been reengineered to work more effectively with the newly enhanced multi-function panel.

Key benefits: The latched, snap-lock front cover enables quicker access to components for easier maintenance and servicing.

Industry-Best Warranty

The upgraded EZ Series Pro continues to include three models, all with a Uniform Energy Factor of 0.98, the highest efficiency rating in the tankless water heater industry:

EZ71: input range — 12,800 to 160,000 BTU/hour; flow rate — 0.4 to 9.0 gallons per minute; turndown ratio — 12.5:1EZ98: 12,800 to 180,000 BTUh; 0.4 to 9.8 gpm; 14:1;EZ111: 12,800 to 199,900 BTUh; 0.4 to 11.1 gpm; 16:1.

All three units carry a 25-year limited warranty on their stainless steel heat exchangers, the longest such protection in the industry. Further protection includes a five-year limited parts warranty and one year for reasonable labor.

The water heaters use natural gas but are field-convertible to LP with a parts kit included with every unit. Two water heaters can be linked using Noritz’s optional Quick Connect linkage to double the hot-water flow rate.

Designed for wall-mounting indoors, the EZ Series Pro heaters can be direct-vented with two-, three-, or four-inch Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC or CPVC, or two-inch or three-inch polypropylene venting. They can also be installed outdoors in milder year-round climates using an optional vent cap.

All EZ Series Pro models have received approvals from CSA, NSF5, NSF372, and are Low NOx approved by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (Rule 1146.2).
