VFC 15-150 became the first and industry leading 10:1 turndown ratio residential-scale modulating boiler in North America. Spans the range from small cottage to sprawling mansion.
Sustained high efficiency across firing range even at high temperatures.
Now featuring multiple zone pump control - up to 4 zones replacing the need for external pump controls.
Technology: Patented moisture management system. Protects and ensures long life for all components in the boiler.
Unmatched durability from our exclusive 316Ti stainless steel 80psi “Super Coil” heat exchanger.
Controls 5 independent pumps directly from the boiler without additional relays.
Go anywhere venting options up to 480 feet! IBC boilers are not de-rated because of longer vent runs.
Limited lifetime residential heat exchanger warranty. See website for details.

VFC 15-150 / VFC 45-225 Condensing Boiler
Natural Gas boilers require a Propane conversion kit - Part #P174 to be ordered separately if converting a boiler from
Natural Gas to Propane. Propane boilers require a Natural Gas conversion kit - Part # P176 to be ordered separately if
converting a Propane boiler to Natural Gas.
Boilers are shipped with 30psi pressure relief valve.
