Energy Star Efficiency

For traditional hydronic space heating or radiant floor heating applications, the wall mount and floor standing KNIGHT Heating Boilers offer tremendous savings on energy costs compared to the competition. In fact, KNIGHT has earned the ENERGY STAR qualification, signifying that it has met strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the Environmental Protection Agency and the  Department of Energy.  The fully modulating 5:1 turndown burner allows the KNIGHT to keep fuel use to an absolute minimum by adjusting heat output according to demand.  With a 93 percent AFUE efficiency rating on the 50 to 210 models, KNIGHT can literally cut heating costs in half.  In low temperature radiant applications, KNIGHT efficiency reaches as high as 98%.

100-Foot Venting Flexibility

In addition, the sealed-combustion direct-vent design of the KNIGHT Wall Mount Boiler™ offers unmatched flexibility for placement within a building, permitting air intake and exhaust runs up to 100 equivalent feet using three-inch S636 approved PVC or CPVC pipe.  KNIGHT Wall Mount Boiler™ models (WB050 – WB105) also permit intake and vent runs up to 40 feet using two-inch pipe.  The intake and exhaust runs can terminate horizontally through a sidewall or vertically through the roof.

Same SMART SYSTEM TM Control

Like the floor standing models, the KNIGHT Wall Mount Boiler™ offers the SMART SYSTEM operating control with a user-friendly interface. Standard control features include outdoor reset with sensor, three pump control, night setback and password security. Plus, optional software for a PC or Pocket PC offers expanded capability for recording, tracking and analyzing system data to fine-tune operation for maximum performance and troubleshooting.

ARMOR Plus Storage Tank – A Better Idea!

ARMOR is available in five commercial water heater models, offering a choice of 150,000, 199,000, 285,000, 399,000 and 500,000 Btu/hr inputs. In addition, ARMOR is designed to be installed with a separate storage tank, which eliminates many potential problems encountered with traditional tank-type water heaters.

The unique ARMOR design protects against the harmful effects of lime scale buildup, which can cause a traditional heater to fail in as little as two to five years and substantially increase operating costs. For example, just 1/4-inch of scale in the tank can increase operating costs by as much as 25%. Since ARMOR heats the water and then deposits it in an unfired storage tank, lime scale buildup does not impair the heat transfer efficiency.

5:1 Turndown Delivers Money-Saving Precision

The ARMOR water heater is equipped with a fully modulating 5:1 turndown burner, which enables it to fire as low as 20% of maximum input and smoothly modulate up to 100% depending on demand. This is a definite advantage over competitive units that are only capable of firing at 100% input. With 5:1 turndown, ARMOR takes maximum advantage of its thermal efficiency, eliminating wasted fuel and reducing operating costs.

SMART SYSTEM Provides Ultimate Control

ARMOR is equipped with Lochinvar’s SMART SYSTEM™ control, which includes a built-in cascading sequencer for installations using up to eight water heaters, to maximize hot water delivery. This exclusive feature ensures optimum performance and efficiency by precisely modulating firing rates from minimum-demand situations when only one water heater is required at 20% of rated input to full-on 100% firing of up to eight units.

In addition, the SMART SYSTEM features a two-line, 16-character LCD display using easy-to-understand words instead of potentially confusing codes. Other standard control features are a built-in water heater pump control, password security and night setback. Optional software is also available for a PC, which offers expanded capability for recording, tracking and analyzing system data to fine-tune operation for maximum performance and troubleshooting.

100-Foot Direct-Vent Flexibility

The ARMOR water heater can be vented using inexpensive PVC or CPVC pipe and permits direct-vent distances up to 100 feet for both combustion air and vent runs.
