Hydronic Heating Boilers
84% EFFICIENT, LOW-NOX HYDRONIC HEATING BOILERS
A. O. Smith Genesis® boilers offer everything you could ask for in a non-condensing boiler. They provide the highest possible 84% thermal efficiency, outstanding venting flexibility, space-saving stackable design and a new, advanced Energy Management Control (EMC) system. Genesis models are available for installation indoors (GB Series) or outdoors (GBO Series).
ADVANCED ELECTRONIC CONTROL

Controls every electrical boiler function, including pump operation and main burner ignition, delivers precise temperature management, with ±1º accuracy

Display panel shows current operating status and fault readings in easy-to-understand English instead of confusing numeric codes

Display also shows temperature setpoints, outlet temperature, current inlet/outlet differential (ΔT) and tank temperature

Help screens assist in boiler setup and explain control options

Includes 120V terminals for installation of secondary pump up to 1/3 HP – allows control to cycle secondary pump for maximum efficiency, virtually eliminates standby heat loss at the boiler

iCOMM™ Compatible and can be monitored from remote locations. CALL 1.888.WATER02 for more information

TWO-STAGE GAS FIRING SYSTEM

Twin gas valve firing system ensures smooth operation, saves fuel and extends boiler life

Prevents short cycling during low demand periods, delivers maximum output when demand is high
LOW-NOX OPERATION
COPPER FINNED-TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER

Designed for maximum durability and serviceability

Copper is lightweight for easier handling and immune to thermal shock

Removable headers allow easy inspection of waterways
SPACE-SAVING DESIGN

Smaller footprint versus other horizontal copper fin-tube boilers

One unit can be stacked on top of another, doubling output with no increase in floor footprint with optional stack rack
COMPLIANCE

Meets or exceeds the thermal effi ciency and standby loss requirements of the U.S. Department of Energy and current edition ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1
TEN-YEAR HEAT EXCHANGER LIMITED WARRANTY
