Modine Commercial Effinity Heater - 260K BTU/High-Efficiency Condensing/Direct Spark Ignition/LP/Separated Combustion/Single Stage w/Aluminized Steel Heat Exchanger
Features
- Made in the USA
- Separated combustion - drawing combustion air from outside to ensure that the unit will always have plenty of fresh, clean air for combustion while increasing the overall heating efficiency
- Helps promote a clean air growing environment - combustion fumes are vented outside, away from your plants
- Fuel savings - up to 97% efficiency allows you to save otherwise wasted energy and money
- Dependable and consistent performance accompanies Modine’s Conservicore Technology - providing power exhauster and dual heat exchangers
- Secondary heat exchanger is made of AL29-4 stainless steel and comes with a 10-year- eliminating corrosion concerns and extending the life of your investment
- Building Management System integration capabilities allow these units to be added easily to any existing system
- Energy Saver Controls - as the temperature increases, the gas is disabled and stratified ceiling air is used to heat the space below. Once the ceiling air temperature decreases, the gas re-engages and heats the air
- Contractor Convenience Package featuring a condensate pump convenience outlet, unit on/off switch, heater function status indicator lights, and external terminals for thermostat wiring
- Just one Effinity heater can lower CO2 output by thousands of pounds annually
- 4" vent & combustion air connection
- Liquid Propane
- 260,000 BTU
- Direct spark ignition
- Single Stage Energy Saver Controls
- Aluminized steel heat exchanger
