Combustion Equipment

FIRE TUBE BOILERS

OLD SECTIONAL BOILERS

NEW SECTIONAL BOILERS

MODULATING DUAL FUEL BURNERS

SUMMER BOILER

90% Efficiency, Natural Gas, Small Foot Print

CONDENSING BOILERS

Combustion Analysis

• Flue Gas Temperature

• Excess Air

• CO2, O2

• Smoke

• Adequate Combustion Air

• Ambient Temperature

• Radiation and Convection Losses

COMBUSTION EFFICIENCY

• Upgrade the original boilers

• Consider multiple sectional packaged boilers

• Separate Summer DHW load from Boilers

• Install new boiler burners and controls

• Tune and monitor on a regular schedule

• Upgrade building automation system

• Improve the thermal Efficiency of the Envelope.

• Consider Chilled Water from CHP and

renewable energy
