Burnham Independence PV - Manual (Page 2)

Quality Construction
Made in the USA
Every Burnham boiler is made
in the U.S.A.
All Burnham
heat ex-
changer
castings are
produced
“in-house”
to ensure
quality and availability. Burnham
is the only boiler manufacturer
that can make that claim.
Rugged cast iron sections
Hundreds of heat extracting
pins extract the maximum amount
of heat, reducing fuel consump-
tion and saving you money.
Steel couplings called nipples
Steel nipples increase the
longevity of the boiler by
resisting petroleum based
chemicals, including antifreeze.
These inhibitors can deteriorate
the rubber type gaskets which
are commonly found in some
competitors' boilers.
Lifetime True-Blue
limited warranty
Burnham stands behind every
Independence boiler with a 10-
year limited warranty on the
Long Term Home
Comfort and Quality steam heat exchanger, and a
lifetime limited warranty on the
water heat exchanger. The
additional purchase of Burnham’s
Winter Warmth Assurance plan
extends the True Blue Warranty
protection of the heat exchanger
to 5 or 10-year blanket coverage.
The program pays 100% for parts
and labor on qualified repairs for
5 or 10 years from the date of
installation. See your Burnham
Home Heating Team contractor for

Independence Advantages
• With an annual fuel utilization
of 83.2%, the Independence gives
you excellent value for your
dollar.
• A rear drafthood (Indepen
dence models only) installs in low
overhead areas and allows for
clearance and flexibility for
existing piping.
• Standard on each Burnham
Independence Series boiler is a
100% safety shutoff, a time-
proven safety feature with its own
backup system.
• A fuel saving vent damper
(Independence models only)
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.
• The Independence can also
be equipped with a spark-ignited
electronic ignition which
improves energy efficiency.
Burnham's Independence ®
Series gas-fired boilers offer you
all the benefits of hydronic heat
with the advantages of quality
cast iron construction and
advanced engineering. Offered in
steam or hot water, the
Independence is a quiet, reliable,
and efficient boiler.
The Independence natural draft
boiler is available in ten sizes,
and the power vented steam
model is available in four sizes.
Your contractor can size the
Independence boiler to match the
heating requirements of your
home for optimum efficiency.
Independence PV —
Power Vented Model Available
The Independence PV boiler
offers you all the features of
steam heat with the flexibility of a
power vented boiler. The com-
pletely packaged Independence
PV boiler installs almost any-
where because no chimney is
required for installation.
A draft-inducing fan pulls hot
gases through the heat exchanger
at just the right speed for opti-
mum efficiency. Together, the
heat exchanger and fan provide
more heat with less fuel con-
sumption. No vent damper is
required.
So, if you don't have a chimney
or if your old chimney is deterio-
rated or not up to code, you can
install the Independence PV boiler
and vent directly outside through
the wall.
