Product Specifications

A. Water Heater Construction

  1. Consist of two (2) concentric tanks. The inner tank shall contain the domestic water and the outer tank shall contain the heating system water. This “Tank in Tank”  design concept shall allow the inner tank to be self-descaling.
  2. The inner tank shall be 316L corrugated stainless steel material that is passivated to provide additional resistance to corrosion.
  3. The inner tank shall have a maximum working pressure of 150 psi and shall be able to withstand a hydrostatic test pressure of 300 psi.
  4. The outer tank shall be of carbon steel material and have a maximum working pressure of 45 psi.
  5. The water heater shall provide a cold water inlet connection, hot water outlet connection and an AUX connection that is to be utilized for the Tem- prelature / Pressure relief valve or a recirculation return connection.
  6. The outer tank shall be covered with a minimum 2 inches of CFC/HCFC-free rigid polyurethane foam insulation with an equivalent “R” value of 16.
  7. The water heater shall be covered by a single piece polypropylene exterior jacket that resists dents, cuts and abrasions.

B. Temperature Control

  1. drywell shall be inserted into and extend the full length of the inner tank.
  2. Within the drywell shall be a remote sensing bulb attached to a low voltage thermostat that senses the water temperature in the tank.
  3. The thermostat shall open a circuit contact when the temperature rises above the set point and shall close when the temperature falls to a temperature no more than 9°F below the set point.
  4. The thermostat shall be adjustable from 90º F to a maximum temperature setting of 158°F for residential and 194°F for commercial.
  5. The thermostat shall be mounted on a removable cover plate and wired to a removable snap-set connector to allow easy installation and servicing. All field wiring to the thermostat / snap-set connector shall be 24V.

C. Field Installation

  1. The water heater shall have a field installed Temperature /Pressure relief valve with a minimum element length of 8 inches (extended element).
  2. The T&P relief valve shall bear the ASME rating, have a relief pressure of 150 psi and a relief temperature of 210°F.

D. Manuals

  1. The water heater(s) shall be provided with complete instruction manuals, including:
    a. Operational and Maintenance Manual

Warranty
A. The water heater shall carry a limited lifetime warranty when installed in a residential application.
B. The water heater shall carry a six (6) year limited warranty when installed in a commercial application.
Code Requirement
A. The Indirect Fired Water Heater(s) shall be recognized as an ASME Equal by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Board.
B. The Indirect Fired Water Heater(s) shall comply with the National Standard Plumbing Code provided that:

  1. The boiler (system heating) water (including additives) is practically non-toxic, having toxicity rating or Class of 1 as listed in Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products and
  2. Boiler water pressure is limited to a maximum 30psig by an approved relief valve.

C. The Indirect Fired Water Heater(s) shall comply with the Uniform Plumbing Code  Paragraph L3.2 and L3.3 provided that:

  1. The heat transfer medium is potable water or contains only substances which are recognized as safe by the US Food and Drug Administration.
  2. The pressure of the heat transfer medium is maintained less than the normal minimum operating pressure of the potable water system.
  3. The equipment is permanently labeled to indicate that only additives recognized as safe by the FDA shall be used in the heat transfer medium. Other heat exchangers  designs may be permitted where approved by the Administrative Authority.
    D. The installer shall be responsible to ensure that the installation of the Indirect Fired Water  Heater is in compliance with all applicable local, state and national codes.
