With a rapidly failing water heater and an old, inefficient boiler, a 20-unit condominium building in Chicago required major upgrades to its heating system. High efficiency condensing boilers and indirect-fired water heaters from Weil-McLain provided the remedy needed.
Since it was founded in 2011, Cherry Hill, New Jersey-based Allied Energy Efficiency Experts has completed approximately 5,000 comprehensive Home Performance with Energy Star (HPwES) projects in New Jersey and Delaware.
With failing oil-fired boilers and an aging, inefficient heating system, Elm Street School in Gardner, Massachusetts, turned to modulating boilers from Weil-McLain to spark energy efficiencies and lower heating costs for the school.
On Jan. 6, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) published concurrent and identical proposed and direct final rules amending energy conservation standards for consumer central air conditioners and heat pumps.
The Benchmark Platinum Boiler features dual-return capabilities that allow engineers to take full advantage of diverse load demands specific to a site in order to design the most efficient system possible. This boiler’s dual returns keep cold water separate, creating a large condensing zone in the heat exchanger that improves boiler efficiency.
A recent report published by the Consortium for Energy Efficiency (CEE) found that a majority of utility new homes programs rely on the Home Energy Rating System (HERS) ratings for compliance verification. The CEE's "The Overview of Residential New Homes Programs in the United States and Canada" summarizes currently active voluntary programs for the construction of new homes. The report is based on 71 utility programs located in 36 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces.
