Triangle Tube boilers

Xray

Hello fellow Wetheads!  My company is considering using Triangle Tube equipment for our condensing boiler needs.  I am not familiar with the stuff and I was hoping to get feedback from professionals regarding its effectiveness and reliability.  Thanx!

Triangle Tube

Triple A rated in my book.  They are my "go to" boiler.



When condensing technology first became popular, you would have to go to a European boiler for this kind of reliability.  But now, thank goodness, we've caught up.

TT

is made in Belgium. Actually,I believe the HX is made in Poland. Regardless,it's a fine boiler and if I had gas I would put either a Viessmann or TT in my own house!

Nice Boiler

It's made by ACV in Belgium as Rob pointed out. It's my second choice.  The Viessmann Vitodens 100 is a very simple condensing boiler without a fancy control that needs programing.  Its great for the 110,000 btu and under one temp replacement jobs. Better warranty on the HX, better flexibility on venting and better priced too.



I would like to see Triangle start to bring over some of the newer versions that they have across the pond. Look at that little boiler.

Very good boiler

We do mostly Buderus, but TT is a good choice too.  Mad Dog

Triangle Tube boilers

I am a wholesaler and we sell TT & Burnham high efficiency condensing gas boilers. I put in my house the Triangle Tube Prestige Excellence PE110 110,000 BTU input boiler with 14 gallon stainless steel indirect water built in the boiler. Great boiler the indirect water heater delivers 3 GPM or 180 GPH can run two showers at one time with 1.6 GPM alsons shower heads. If you need more domestic hot water they have Smart SS indirect water heaters in 30gal to 120gal

Prestige Solo boiler only in 60,000 - 110,000 - 175,000 - 250,000 & 399,000 BTU input sizes.

Just spoke with tech service at TT and they have new products coming out now. One is their challenger boiler & water heater all in one unit only 3 sizes max is 124,000 BTU input 3 GPM domestic hot water delivery. Other control changes coming to the Prestige boiler line this year.

what part of the country are you from?

Re: TT boilers

this has been my boiler of choice for the last 5 yrs. We sell and service them. When I say service, really has not been much need as they have been extremely reliable. Not to say nothing goes wrong. Electrodes and condensate traps need cleaning once a yr, may go 2 yrs but for preventative once a yr is best. If installed and set up right they just purr along. The new Lochinvar Knight wall hung has basically the same heat exchanger with a little improvement that they came out with a couple months ago, nice boiler. Just note that they require 1" clearance on their pvc vent to combustibles. It might mess you up a bit if trying to vent in a wall cavity. The TT vent clearance is only 1/4" air space. Just fyi.  Good luck, Tim
