The SILIENT water chiller system is connected to your plumbing in your utility room in the same way your water heater is connected to your plumbing. SILIENT takes municipal water in, chills the water using a proprietary water chilling system, stores the chilled water in an insulated cold-optimized tank, and delivers chilled water to your existing showers and bathtubs on-demand. There are two plumbing connections made to the exposed pipes in your utility room (inlet and outlet).
