Burnham Boiler - Series 2: Quality Home Heating You Can Count On
If you're investigating a heating system for your new home, or if you're replacing an old, inefficient, worn-out boiler, a Burnham Series 2 gas-fired hot water boiler is the
home heating investment that's right for you.
Burnham's Series 2 boiler offers you all the benefits of hot water heat together with the advantages of quality cast iron construction and advanced engineering. When
you specify Burnham, you get home heating that is comfortable, economical, and reliable — all from a boiler that's safe, quiet, and field proven in thousands of installations.
High Efficiency Model Available
The high efficiency version of the Series 2, the Series 2H provides Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiencies (AFUE) of
84% and is available in four sizes from 62-164 MBH input. In addition to all the features included in the Series 2, the Series 2H features an intermittent ignition system and stainless
steel flue baffles for even greater heat transfer and efficiency.
Make a Smart Investment
There are few investments you'll ever make that are more important than your heating system.
With the guidance of a qualified heating contractor, you can easily customize your heating system and choose options that add comfort and value to your home. Burnham's Series 2
makes heating your home with gas a practical investment today and one you'll appreciate over the years.
Start Saving Nowl
Many old boilers operate at around 60% efficiency. This means that 40% of your fuel dollars are wasted. A Series 2 boiler, with an AFUE of up to 84%, can reduce your
heating bills by as much as 28%. Your Series 2 boiler virtually pays for itself in a few short years by saving money spent on fuel the old system is wasting.
Use the following formula to compare the Series 2 boiler to the 60% efficiency of a typical 20-year-old boiler.
In the example shown, the homeowner could realize a $429 savings the first year alone. Check with your contractor to calculate your savings potential.
Abundant Hot Water
Today's homeowners need more hot water than ever before, for showers, dishwashers, washing machines, bathtubs, etc. By
combining the Series 2 boiler with Burnham's Alliance indirect-fired water heater, you'll have sufficient hot water to meet all your
needs. The Alliance water heater utilizes the high heating capability of your boiler to provide year-round hot water at a very low operating cost.
Built to Last
Made in the USA — Every Burnham® boiler is made in the U.S.A. To ensure the highest level of quality all Burnham boiler
castings are produced "in-house" at our foundry in Zanesville, Ohio. Burnham is the only boiler manufacturer that can make such a claim.
Operating Features
• Rugged cast iron sections
Superior pin design extracts the maximum amount of heat, reducing fuel consumption and saving you money.
• Steel couplings
At Burnham we use steel couplings called "nipples" to join our cast iron sections. Steel nipples increase the longevity of
your boiler. They are not affected by petroleum based chemicals, including antifreeze, which can deteriorate the cheaper rubber type gaskets substituted for steel push nipples in some competitors' boilers.
• Fuel saving vent damper
This automatically closes the flue to prevent heat from escaping up the chimney after the burner shuts off and reopens it again before the burner comes on.
• Stainless steel burners
Stainless steel, unlike alumi-nized steel, ensure long life with no rusting.
• Step-opening gas valve
This type of gas valve enables the boiler to start on low fire and continue on to high fire safely and smoothly providing quiet ignition and long life.
• Honeywell controls
High quality brand name controls assure reliability and availability.
• Combustible floor certified
The Series 2 boiler can be installed safely on most floors in your home without worry. No extra cost floor shield to buy.
• Blocked vent switch
This switch safely shuts down the boiler in the event the chimney or vent system becomes blocked, by sensing excessive heat exiting the drafthood.
• Flame roll-out switch
If the flue-ways within the boiler become blocked or restricted, the flame roll-out switch will
automatically shut off gas flow to prevent combustion byproducts from spilling into your home.
• Concealed Controls
All controls are safety hidden under the boiler jacket to prevent damage and tampering.
