sealed combustion steam boiler?

Wes Grace

Thanks to Steamhead, Joe and Glenn. I didn't think I could get closed combustion for steam. Have new stainles liner in old chimney - will just have to put up with loss of heated air. Second concern was getting contaminated air from laundry in the flue gas - last boiler only lasted 17 to 18 years.

sealed combustion steam boiler?

I am replacing my gas boiler and want to get as good efficiency as possible, but I have steam. Can you get a closed combustion steam boiler in the 60,000 to 80,000 BTU range? Is closed combustion the same as condensing practically speaking?

Not the same as condensing

but if you need one designed for sidewall-venting because your chimney's in bad shape, look at the Burnham Series 2-PV.

I think the Series-2

and 2-PV are both hot water not steam models. I can't think of ever seeing a DV steam boiler, oil or gas.

Independence PV

The sidewall vent version in steam is the INPV or Independence PV power vented gas steam boiler. It is not, however, a sealed combustion unit nor diriect vent. It requires combustion air from the room where it is installed. Hope this helps.
