SKYE International, Inc. (OTCBB: SKYI), developer and marketer of next-generation tankless water heaters, announced today that it has increased commercial production of�its FORTIS� whole-house electric tankless water heaters. Having commenced commercial production in October, 2008, Skye International has increased production to approximately 1,000 units per month, representing approximately 60% of the available production capacity in the 30,000 square foot contract manufacturing facility located in Tempe, Arizona. The Company believes that by the end of the 2009, FORTIS� water heater production should reach an annualized rate of 20,000 per year. The MSRP of the FORTIS� 120 has been set at $1,899.

The Company's contract manufacturer utilizes a series of quality standards and tests that exceed required testing under the UL 499 certification. All test data is captured and linked to each FORTIS� unit produced, thereby providing the Company's service technicians with valuable information to assist in field service and troubleshooting. Additionally, the Company has also begun to stock inventory at its remote 20,000 square foot logistics warehouse location from which direct fulfillment and distribution is undertaken to the Company�s growing customer base of plumbing wholesale distributors.

�We believe we have developed the necessary sales, production and distribution base from which to significantly grow revenue,� said Perry D. Logan, SKYE International�s President. �Achieving our production goals allows us to meet commitments to our growing customer base, and with the demand for tankless water heaters continuing to grow due to the increasing consumer awareness of tankless technologies, as well as a renewed focus on energy conservation, we believe Skye International is well positioned to capture a significant share of this growing market.�

FORTIS� tankless electric saves the average household about 10% to 40% of water heating costs when compared to conventional storage tank based water heaters. With industry leading efficiencies�, compact design, stainless steel construction and state-of-the-art on-board diagnostics, the FORTIS� is the clear choice for the discerning buyer. A 10 year limited warranty also gives you the peace of mind that a Skye stands behind the quality it builds into every product.
