Peer comment(s):

agree Endre Both : or just "condensing technology"; "calorific value" (see above) is very likely a translation from German, look at the sites that pop up in Google if you search for it

Yes, I agree, "appliance" is probably superfluous here

calorific value technology

"High-Tech from Junkers
Calorific value-technology saves up to 40% energy

With conventional heating equipment, the heating energy in the exhaust gas escapes unused into the atmosphere. Gas-calorific value equipment in contrast, have particularly large heat exchangers which transfer the thermal energy from the exhaust gas to the heating water. That saves up to 40% energy."
