Hot water supply boiler for domestic hot water purposes shall be model no as manufactured by AO Smith® or an approved equal. Boilers shall be gas fired and design certified by an ANSI approved/accredited independent rating laboratory, capable of supplying gph at 100 deg F temperature rise equipped to burn gas, with input rating of BTU/hr. And bearing the ASME code symbol. Boilers shall be up flow type having all non-ferrous waterways and employing a copper finned heat exchanger and a tightly wound copper coil combustion chamber with 160 psi working pressure rating. Boilers shall be equipped with an electric gas valve of the step opening-type, an adjustable limit control which will break the electric circuit on temperature rise, intermittent ignition with one second shutdown in the event of pilot flame failure, a gas pressure regulator properly set for the gas to be supplied and a coil limit switch for shut-off in event of excessive water temperature, a certified draft diverter and a fully illustrated instruction manual. Certified for installation on combustible flooring. Outer jacket shall be of baked enamel finish. The coil, heat exchanger and burner shall have a 5 year limited warranty as outlined in the written warranty.

  • All castings are made of bronze or brass
  • All water tubes are made from copper
  • Brazed joints or flare union construction make the boiler immune to the effects of thermal shock and thermal cycling
  • A great boiler for domestic hot water supply
  • The efficient copper coil combustion chamber is a heat exchanger formed from a two passage coil of tightly wound continuous copper tube
  • Water circulating through this coil surrounds the main burner and captures the Radiant™ heat
  • A wrap of insulation on the outside of the coil retains the heat captured by the circulating water
  • Directly above the coil and the main burner is a compact, horizontal, copper fin tube heat exchanger
  • The flue gases must pass through this efficient heat exchanger before leaving the boiler
  • This unique burkay coil and heat exchanger design provide maximum heat transfer and proven field durability
  • The patented burkay burner uses primary air injection at up to 72 individual orifices plus secondary entrainment of air
  • Approved for installation on combustible floors as shipped from factory
  • Slow opening redundant gas valves ensure smooth light-off without flame roll-out or pilot outage
  • Patented pump delay system that allows boiler and pump to run simultaneously
  • Delays pump shut-off at end of heating cycle to remove usable heat from the heat exchanger and reduce the scale forming tendencies of motionless hot water
  • Proven pilot ignition system provides flame failure response in under one second
  • Redundant high-limit controls and gas valves assure safe shut-off in the event of overheating or flame failure
  • Requires 120 V, 60 Hz, maximum inlet gas pressure of 14 in-WC and activation of boiler by external temperature control
  • ASME approved, hydrostatically tested and certified for 160 psi
  • These model meet the thermal efficiency and standby loss requirements of the U. S. Department of energy and current edition ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1
