Hydronic comfort heating company, Weil-McLain®, has launched its commercial Stainless Steel Vertical Firetube (SVF), a boiler that features thermal efficiency up to 97.1 per cent, and the ease of installation and maintenance.
Available in 750 and 1100 models, the SVF line features a clover-shaped stainless steel fire tube heat exchanger for best-in-class corrosion resistance, a new exterior look, and simple, user-friendly controls to make installation and operation easy.
The SVF boiler line was developed with the contractor in mind and utilizing extensive market research and testing to help shape design and functionality, said John Miller, senior product manager with Weil-McLain.
Time-saving installation features including heavy-duty roller casters to make maneuvering easier in confined spaces, industrial-grade leveling legs, an end-shot burner design requiring only 18 inches overhead space, and the advanced Unity control set-up wizard.
The Unity Controller is designed to reduce installation and set-up time for contractors, simplify boiler system design for specifying engineers, and improve control interface commonality and communication across the entire Weil-McLain high efficiency boiler line, said Miller.
For ease of service, the SVF features a hinged cover plate with quick access to the burner and fire tubes for simple heat exchanger wash-down with no need for additional disassembly, and an open back panel design with no side access required for service. The unit also features a removable and replaceable condensate base.
Other key features include:
- 70 to 2,0000 MBH compatibility
- 160 psi working pressure
- Natural gas or propane fuel options
- Full line of venting options
