Two new models of the Master-Fit® line of commercial water heaters are available. The BTI-80 and BTI-100 provide 75- and 100-gal storage and inputs of 80,000 and 100,000 Btu, respectively. The new models were designed for the restaurant and paper service market. To overcome problems in negative room pressure installations, such as restaurant kitchens, the blower proves draft prior to ignition, eliminating fuel spillage and roll out which can be caused by negative pressure.
