Features

Features

 N/A 82% thermal efficiency means lower operating costs.

Fan Assisted Combustion
  • The blower is built into the Low NOx burner assembly for Ultra-Low NOx readings that comply with SCQAMD rule 1146.2 of 14 ng/j or 20 ppm.
Metal Venting
  • Rated Category I Appliance. Uses standard double wall type "B" vent.
  • Can be commonly vented with other Category I appliances.
  • Vent connects directly to the vent connector outlet.
  • No Draft hood or barometric damper required.
  • Perfect choice for retrofit and upgrade installations.
Water Connections
  • For ease of installation, all BCL3s feature water connections on the top, front, and rear.
  • Self Cleaning inlet water connection eliminates harmful scale buildup, extending the life of the product.
  • The front inlet connection must be used for the Self Cleaning benefits.
Glasslined Tank
  • Our proprietary slush coating is applied after the complete tank has been assembled to give a seamless barrier against hot water corrosion.
  • Maximum working pressure 160 psi.
Installed Cost Savings
  • When multiple BCL3 units are exclusively used in a vent manifold, use the National Fuel Gas Code Table 13 Vent Sizing information to determine vent diameter and specifications.
Fully Automatic Digital Control with Safety Shutoff
  • Accurate, dependable control system. Features a two speed blower control for smooth main burner light off.
  • Manual reset gas shutoff device for added safety.
  • Maximum inlet gas pressure is 14" W.C. Minimum gas pressure is 3.5" W.C. Natural Gas.
Foam Insulation
  • Saves fuel, helps reduce standby heat loss.
Jacket
