BURNHAM
Gas-fired, Condensing Stainless Steel Boiler
Peak Performance for Hydronic and Radiant Heating
Introducing the Alpine from Burnham, a condensing boiler with efficiency ratings of 95%. The Alpine utilizes a stainless steel heat exchanger, designed to extract maximum heat from the combustion process, along with a control system that is designed to enhance boiler efficiency as well as system efficiency. With 7 different models ranging in size from 80,000 BTUs – 500,000 BTUs, there’s a model for nearly every job from small residential to light commercial installations. Intelligent features are wrapped in a sleek, modern appliance-like jacket, making the Alpine both attractive and smart.
Stainless steel heat exchanger
The heart of the Alpine boiler is the ASME-certified stainless steel heat exchanger. Each heat exchanger is factory hydrotested to insure quality and reliability.
Stackable cabinets allow two Alpine boilers to fit the footprint of one. This feature is standard on every Alpine. When stacked, 1000 MBH requires approximately six square feet!
Alpine Controls
The control system on the Alpine has several features that maximize efficiency and comfort of the heating system:
• Full Modulation with 5-to-1 turndown
• Outdoor Reset
• Plug & Play Connections
• Domestic Hot Water Priority
• Stackable, with Built-in Provisions for External Staging Controls. Built-in terminals can receive a 0-10V DC signal
from an external modulating control.
Natural or LP Gas
The Alpine is designed for easy field conversion from natural gas to LP gas with no kits or special tools required. The turn of a screw is all it takes!
FREE 5-Year Parts & Labor Warranty
The unmatched protection of a FREE 5-year parts & labor warranty is available with every Alpine boiler under 300 MBH and used in a residential application. This plan covers all Burnham-provided parts and the associated labor costs on eligible Alpine boilers for five years from the date of installation at no
additional cost! Alpine boiler registration is required within 90 days from the installation date. Registratrion is fast and simple, either by completing and mailing the registration card provided with the Alpine boiler or via the web at www.burnham.com/productregister.
Single Point Power
Boiler pump and DHW pump are powered directly from the Alpine
Negative Cabinet Pressure
Lower portion of the boiler cabinet operates under a negative pressure, creating an additional layer of safety
Easy To Move and Install
Jacket sides are equipped with flush mounted carry handles. Jacket bottom features nylon glides
Simple Connections
All gas, water, and electrical connections are made from the left side of the boiler
Condensate Protection
Unique polyproplyene condensate trap (patent pending) stands up to acidic condensate, and features an integral float switch which protects the heat exchanger from back-up
Sealed Top Panel
The sealed top panel protects boiler controls from spills or leaks; the components are also isolated from the lower jacket to protect them from cold or moist combustion air
Smart Controls
Display panel shows control status, settings can be adjusted with soft-touch buttons
Control panel slides out for easy servicing
Efficient Combustion
Air and fuel are pre-mixed in the blower assembly for clean, balanced combustion
Design Simplicity
Separate spark rod and flame sensor are used for longevity and reliability
Long Lasting Comfort
Durable, efficient stainless steel heat exchanger maximizes heat transfer
Venting
ALSO AVAILABLE
Alpine comes standard with a CPVC/PVC vent kit. This ETL-approved material consists of a
30” CPVC starter pipe and one 90° CPVC elbow.
Burnham
An optional European-standard
Polyproplyene Concentric Vent System is also available.
The Alpine can also be vented with an optional two pipe system using stainless steel (AL29-4C) vent matierial.
Alliance SL™
Indirect-fired Water Heaters
The Alliance SL water heaters are designed with an effective hydrastone lining that offers superior corrosion resistance and outstanding performance in a wide variety of water conditions.
Water heaters are available in five sizes and come with a unique 10/2/1 warranty – 10 years on the tank and coil, 2 years labor and 1 year on parts.
American-Made Quality
Alpine boilers are designed and assembled in Lancaster, PA. Each Alpine is hydro­tested and fire-tested in order to deliver safety, efficiency, durability and low emissions.
