  • The “Wetback Design”
    • Wetback boilers have separate tube sheets between all major temperature changes
    • The rear access door is constructed of lightweight space age vacuum
      formed ceramic fiber
    • The rear doors require no cool-down period and can be opened immediately
    • No space consuming area required to open the rear doors
    • Efficiency is maintainable because hot gases cannot short circuit in
      a wetback design.
  • Compare the Wetback Design vs. Dryback Design


  • Low NOx Boiler
    • Large furnaces for low volumetric release rates
    • High heat transfer for the most efficient boiler for your application
    • Less burner motor horsepower so less energy is used to operate your boiler
  • Combining these three features contribute to an ideal Low NOx package application.
