BOILER/WATER HEATER
Space Saving
Combo
Burnham's Minuteman® II
boiler/water heater combines
home heating with domestic hot
water in one space-saving unit.
Because of its small footprint, it
can be easily installed in confined
areas or closets. The Minuteman
II boiler is ideal for all heating
applications ranging from single
homes, multi-family units, to
industrial or commercial applications.
Available in three sizes from
70 to 140 MBH input, the annual
fuel utilization efficiencies are as
high as 83%. The Minuteman II
unit can also provide hot water at
up to 3.3 gallons per minute
intermittent draw.
Direct Vent
Burnham's high efficiency
Minuteman II is an innovation in
boiler design.
An important safety consideration, given today's heavily
insulated and tightly constructed
homes, is that all the Minuteman
II combustion air is taken directly
from outside. Installed this way,
the Minuteman II is a sealed unit
so not only the air for combustion,
but also the products of that
combustion are completely sealed
off from the air in your living
space.
Power Vented
The National Fuel Gas Code has
set specific guidelines requiring
properly lined chimneys for
atmospheric gas boilers and water
heaters. Burnham's Minuteman II
unit delivers both capabilities in a
direct vent unit that avoids the
expense of chimney lining.
So, if you don't have a chimney
or if your old chimney isn't up to
the code, you can install the
Minuteman II and vent directly
outside through the wall.
Perfect in Many
Applications
The Minuteman II boiler/water
heater installs almost anywhere,
making it perfect for whatever
your home heating needs might
be.
New home construction...
provides little space for equipment. That's why the Minuteman
II is designed to provide hot water
and heat in a space similar to that
of a standard water heater.
Electric baseboard
conversions...are growing more
popular due to lower gas prices,
high electric heat costs and
greater gas line accessibility. The
Minuteman II can replace the
electric space heating and the
electric hot water heater with just
one system.
Conversions from centralized
heating…to individual heating
units in multifamily housing.
Provides space heating and
domestic hot water in small
footprint for apartment or
condominium applications.
Direct vent replacements...
where chimneys are not up to
code. Burnham's Minuteman II
delivers capabilities in a direct
vent unit that avoids the expense
of chimney lining by venting
through the wall direct to the
outside.
Quality Engineered Cast
Iron Construction
The rugged cast iron construction of the Minuteman II boiler
makes it dependable, efficient,
and virtually trouble-free. The
cast iron heat
exchanger has
a greater
water content
than those
boilers with
copper tube
heat exchangers. This can extend
the life of the boiler, protect it
against adverse operating conditions, and assure quiet operation.
Made in the USA
Unlike some other boiler/water
heater units, the Burnham
Minuteman II and all its major
components are manufactured in
the U.S.A.
All Burnham section castings,
including those of
the Minuteman II
boiler, are made at
our own in-house
foundry. By producing our castings this way,
Burnham ensures quality and
availability.
