Read More2018/6/19 · An efficient natural gas burner requires only 2% to 3% excess oxygen, or 10% to 15% excess air in the flue gas, to burn fuel without forming excessive carbon monoxide. Most gas burners exhibit turndown ratios of 10:1 or 12:1 with little or no loss in combustion efficiency. Some burners offer turndowns of 20:1 on oil and up to 35:1 on gas.
Read MoreBoilers using the pressure jet type of burner, i.e. with a fan, (usually with 35 second oil) can achieve a turndown ratio of 2, while the rotary cup type burner can achieve 4. Condensing oil boilers are fairly unusual; the condensate from the combustion of oil is far more aggressive than gas, mainly due to …

Read MoreEnergy Kinetics' has proven 30- year boilers with a track record of outlasting cast iron and condensing boilers from around the globe. Because of this reputation and our dedication to quality, every boiler is backed by the industry's best warranty, including residential lifetime protection and a 10 year labor allowance on many models.
Read MoreEnergy Kinetics boilers have over 90 lbs. of insulation and jacketing, virtually eliminating all losses. Common boiler controls and outdoor reset controls are not effective at reducing fuel bills. Energy Kinetics "low mass" boilers are designed with energy recovery and thermal purge controls, creating the best heat and hot water efficiency.
Read MoreCondensing boilers use waste heat from exhaust gases to preheat cold water entering the boiler. Energy is transferred much better through water than through air, and that is what makes these boilers much more efficient than conventional, non-condensing boilers.
