From the manufacturer of the
popular condensing
boiler comes the Phoenix conden-
sing water heater designed for
combined hydronic applications.
Phoenix is the pinnacle of 10 years
of product evolution and field exper-
ience resulting in a super durable,
reliable, quiet & cost effective ultra
high efficiency water heater.

· 96% combustion efficiency
· 2" foam insulation (0.5%/hr)
standby loss
· Load matching modulation
· No standing pilot light
Super Durable
· 316L stainless steel tank
· Cupernickle/stainless steel comb-
ustion chamber
· Millions of key components in use
worldwide
· Reduced cycling adds component
life
· 30 years of tank know-how and
75,000 condensing water
heaters installed.
Compact
A Phoenix is only 24" wide, uses
only 5 sq ft of floor space and is
rated zero clearance to combustible
surfaces.
Super Reliable
· Spark ignition
· Euro reliable and field tested
components
Super Quiet
· Whisper quiet: .45dB at 5ft
Lots of Hot Water
Modern homes with
multiple bathrooms
and whirlpool baths
need high capacity
water heaters to meet
the large peak loads.
Phoenix is the perfect fit.
The Right Choice: LowNox
The Phoenix reduces
carbon emissions over
standard efficiency
heaters by TONS over 10
years.
Affordable
High efficiency is more cost effective
and easier to install than ever.
How Phoenix Works
The Phoenix is a super insulated
stainless steel water storage tank
fitted with a combustion chamber
submerged in the tank water. When
the burner is fired, the hot combus-
tion gases heat the combustion
chamber walls,
transferring the
heat directly to the
surrounding water.
The hot gases are
gases are blown
into the secondary
heat exchange
coils where even
more heat is trans-
ferred to the water condensing the
combustion gases. Finally, the cool,
LowNox combustion air is vented via
plastic pipe to the outdoors.
Why Modulation Matters
The Phoenix electronic control a
adjusts the burner fire rate to match
demand exactly. The burner fire rate
increases as the demand increases
and decreases as the hot water
demand approaches the required
temperature set point. This load
matching modulation dramatically
reduces on/off cycling, resulting in
longer component life, reliability and
higher system efficiency.
Flexible PVC Venting
Phoenix can exhaust up to 100 ft
equivalent feet with flexible venting
options to meet the requirements
of any job.
Three Tank Sizes
The system designer can select
from three tanks sizes to match
peak hot water demand require-
ments of the project.

Flexible
System Distribution
Design
With Phoenix, the
designer has the
choice of different
type of heat distrib-
ution to solve heat-
ing & cooling, zoning, ducting and
comfort challenges. These types of
distribution can be used solely or
combined within a given building.
Radiant Heating
· Unsurpassed comfort
· No ducting
· Easy zoning
· Super quiet
Air Handlers
· Heating & cooling with DX
or chilled water
· Reduced ducting with
multiple units
· Easy zoning with multiple
units
· No vent or gas line
· 2-stage or variable speed
Fan Convectors
· No ducting required
· Individual room zoning
· Many styles: Kickspace,
wall types, floor models
Real Whole House Efficiency:
Lower Operating Cost
Using one super efficient Phoenix
hot water heat source to provide
both water and space heating
provides the fastest payback on your
investment by saving energy in two
ways.
In many homes, the annual dome-
stic hot water load and space heat-
ing load are approximately equal.
A high efficiency furnace only does
½ the job.
Hot Water Zoning Saves Energy
& Space
Zoning lowers energy bills by allow-
ing the end user to reduce energy
use in unoccupied areas. Hot water
from the Phoenix can flow to remote-
ly located air handlers, fan convect-
ors, radiant heating, etc., reducing
or eliminating duct energy losses
while very cost effectively providing
energy efficient zoning.
This strategy reduces space require-
ments, system energy usage and
reduces the installed cost over
homes using multiple furnaces and
water heaters.
