Does anyone have access to 80's-ish Dunham Bush hot water unit heater capacity data?
Specifically:
H-250-C
H-400-C
H-500-C

    No but it looks like they gave it to you. H-250-C is probably 250,000 btu/ hour.

    Probably has 1 1/2" pipe on the 250, 2" on the 400 and 2 1/2" on the 500

    Thanks.
    As far as I can tell from their 20th century website , they don't have unit heaters. I'll keep looking.

    The space the unit heaters are located is a basement church hall. The 250 is probably more than enough using 180 deg water. There is also a 500 and two 400s.

    I see nothing on the D/B website. I would get the model #, pipe size, fan HP and the dimensions of the coil and go to Sterling, Modine or Beacon Morris and have them match something up.

    Dunham Bush used to be a big player now they moved off shore and don't do much in the US as far as I can tell
