Commercial Gas Heaters
Thermal efficiency is higher...while footprint and vent sizes are smaller
Lochinvar’s Copper-Fin2® line of high efficiency commercial gas heaters gives you all the advantages
of copper-finned tube heat exchanger technology plus the benefits of a sealed combustion system. Every Copper-Fin2 model offers four major advantages: higher efficiency, smaller footprint, smaller vent diameters and a wide variety of venting options.
Outstanding thermal efficiency
Copper-Fin2 gas heaters offer a remarkably high 89% thermal efficiency. This means that 89¢ out of every fuel dollar goes into heating the water, dramatically reducing the operating cost of the equipment. Copper-Fin2 achieves this efficiency through the combination of an advanced fan assisted combustion system and
gasketless copper-finned tube heat exchanger. A time tested
and proven combination.
The heat energy from the combustion process is efficiently transferred into the water as it passes
through the solid copper-finned tube heat exchanger. The sealed combustion design of the Copper-Fin2 reduces external heat loss. This means that the energy dollars heat the water, not the mechanical room. It also ensures that the jacket stays cooler, providing greater safety and requiring less clearance from combustible walls - just 1” in most cases.
Meets the toughest air quality standards
Because of our unique fan-assisted combustion process, the Copper-Fin2 exceeds today’s toughest NOx emissions requirements. An independent certification laboratory test gave us a rating of less than
20 ppm —corrected to 3% O2. And less NOx means a cleaner environment.
Compact design - for installation ease
The Copper-Fin2 is compact enough to fit through standard 36”
doorways with ease. Even our
2 million Btu/hr model is only 33-1/2” wide. This spacesaving design frees up more space in
the mechanical room.
And our optional Lochinvar Stack Frame lets you put two units in the footprint of just one. See our Stack Frame literature for more details.
(Indoor use only)
Automatic pumped bypass standard
All Copper-Fin2 heaters are equipped with an automatic high temperature CPVC bypass to ensure proper flow and return water temperatures to the heater. This results in longer equipment life and trouble free operation. The CPVC bypass is provided as standard equipment in a horizontal
configuration. A vertical configuration is also available offering the flexibility to
meet mechanical room space requirements
or piping constraints.
Making installation easier...for less
High-efficiency, fan-assisted combustion means you can use a smaller diameter vent stack — up to 8” smaller than typically required. This makes installation less expensive and more flexible.
