The cabinet or outside of the boiler is made with a very heavy gauge steel
that is protected with an enamel paint finish. The boiler is 100% fully insulated with fiberglass,
which will help keep your temperatures low. In turn this will save you money on your monthly
heating bills.
The Water Supply and the Return Connections are installed on both sides of
the cabinet. The PWB is easy to maintain and east to access. The burner panel removes very easily
for maintenance when needed. Dunkirk installed an integral draft diverter as part of the cabinet,
which decreases the units’ height, making installation a bit easier. The flue ways on the boiler
are very accessible for cleaning and for maintenance if needed.
The Boiler comes equipped with an automatic safety pilot, pilot filtration to
ensure no debris or particles can get float into the igniter. The boiler has a manual shut off
feature for safety and a gas pressure regulation for proper operation. One stand out feature is the
Dual Valve Design. This allows 100% shut off to the pilot and the main burners in case of an
emergency.
Other special features are the Drain Valve. This valve is made from brass
making it durable and reliable. The opening is ¾” which is installed by a technician. The Relief
Valve is located at the top of the boiler for easy reading. The pressure should open at 30 psig,
which is a safe pressure level.
Another great safety feature is the Blocked Vent Safety Shutoff. This is a
thermostat that is very temperature sensitive. This valve will stop the boiler from running in the
event of a vent or a chimney blockage. The valves come already installed on the boiler. It is
located at the relief opening on the cabinet door.
There are some beneficial features installed on the boiler but there are also
some optional features available. You can look into buying a propane gas fired boiler, propane
fired conversion kit, a Grundfos Circulator Pump and Combustible Floor Plates.
