is done at 13.0% CO2 for #2 oil -- meanwhile, in the real world your mileage will be a little lower, pinner or 3 pass.

    Maybe one leaks and the other one doesn't? Just kidding. I see no difference. I think it's just a model change thing. They are identical from what I see. peace

    Looks like the \"H\" is for......................

    "High" Efficiency Oil-fired Boiler
    85+% AFUE ENERGY STAR® Certified

    Never would've through a pin boiler could be so high {wink,wink}

    Is that for real John?

    I looked quickly, and read what was on the front page, and I must have missed it. That is rather high efficiency for a top flue pin. Time will indeed tell. peace
  • 85.3 to be precise

    for a V84 we installed today .

    My own pin style Peerless is rated at 87.5

    Go figure :)

    high efficiecy

    You must have a WB with a Riello Ron? Don't let the triple pass boys hear that you can get those numbers with pin boilers. I know you can, but we always did it that way. peace

    Blanket

    The First One I Installed I Noticed It Did Not Have A Blanket On The Bottom. Checked With Burnham Was Told Unless It Was For Steam It Was Not Needed. Also The Circulator And Burner Are Unassemeled. royboy
