Energy Efficient Hot Water Boiler Plant Design Part 3: Condensing Boiler Heat Exchanger Construction Considerations

/
Condensing boilers have made a strong case for themselves in terms of both space and energy efficiency. Of course, the latter hinges on one critical factor: the condensing boiler must condense. And if condensation is intended as an ongoing occurrence, the correct materials and equipment must be specified to withstand the harsh effects of condensation.

Energy Efficient Hot Water Boiler Plant Design Part 1: Combustion Process and Combustion Efficiency

/
It takes approximately 1000 Btus of energy to convert one pound of water into vapor. Think of that as the price you pay as part of the combustion process in a typical non-condensing hydronic boiler. That’s a good starting place for this next series on Energy Efficient Hot Water Boiler Plant Design.

Heads up on ASHRAE 90.1 - 2013 and Its Impact on Commercial HVAC Design!

/
The Department of Energy (DOE) released a statement last month saying that ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1 - 2010 Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings offers 8.5% source energy savings and 7.6% site energy savings over the 2010 version. That’s enough to warrant another round of changes to commercial building codes. State governments now officially have until September 26, 2016....
