The publication provides detailed design and performance information for the popular KN-6, KN-10 and KN-20 commercial gas-fired, direct vent cast iron boilers. A real-world application and photos regarding the replacement of a 30-year-old boiler at a Woonsocket, RI church with a KN-10 boiler, also demonstrates the boiler’s energy and space saving benefits.

The KN-Series brochure offers information and photographs highlighting the boilers’ exclusive features, including: an efficiency rating of up to 99% combined with a small footprint, clean-burning Tru-Flowä technology, advanced controls with self-diagnostics, a proven spark igniter system with air-cooled, self-contained UV sensing for easy maintenance, and rugged, precision-machined cast iron sections for reliability.

A page is dedicated to each of the boilers – KN-6, KN-10, KN-20 – demonstrating their respective design and performance features, with heating capacities ranging from 600 to 1999 MBH and 4:1 to 5:1 turndown. Finally, the brochure is complete with color photos and efficiency, size dimension and spec charts for each of the boilers.

In addition, the boiler had to be small enough to be taken down a set of external stairs, through a church function room and into a very small boiler room in the basement of the church.

Their choice: a HydroTherm KN-10, a high performance, high efficiency boiler with a modulating input up to one million Btu/hour. The KN-10 is a cast iron commercial, gas fired boiler specifically designed to condense in low temperature applications. The system features Tru-Flow technology to control the air-fuel mixture at all firing rates and venting conditions, and combines high efficiency (up to 93%) with a small footprint. It is ideal for use in demanding applications such as schools, hospitals, large apartment buildings and offices.

The HydroTherm KN-10 was installed by Victory Mechanical Services of Bellingham, Mass. in December 2004.

HydroTherm’s new KN-10, a 1 million BTU boiler, provides the town of Springfield, Colorado with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that its standby electrical generators are always ready.

The KN-10 Boiler was recently installed to maintain 110° F hot water to the diesel engines that drive the back-up generators. Power can be supplied immediately in the event that there is a failure with the main power grid which supplies electricity to southeastern Colorado.

By not keeping the engines warm, it would take three to four hours before the back-up generators could be started.
