Series WBV/WV™

Products » Residential Boilers » Series WBV/WV™

The Series WBV/WV™ residential, oil-fired boilers are available for use with both hot water and steam systems and designed for natural draft (chimney) venting. The fully-packaged or knockdown boilers are available in 3 sizes (3-5 sections) with 8 firing rates. Features of the Series WBV/WV™ boilers include a full plate swing-out door and convertible rear to top flue outlet (for 3 and 4 section boilers only). Honeywell operating controls, Taco circulators (water boilers) and probe type low water cut-off (steam boilers) are standard. A deluxe, insulated enameled steel jacket on all boilers reduces heat loss. The cast iron sections are assembled with steel push nipples and factory tested to assure a water tight seal.

High Efficiency, Flame Retention Burners

Peerless® Series WBV/WV™ boilers are available with your choice of Beckett, Carlin or Riello burners. These burners feature a high voltage, solid state igniter that improves ignition, and a state of the art motor that results in a lower amp draw and cooler operation. Burners also include a solid state control with interrupted ignition, limited recycle and reset, a pre-purge and other features that assure dependable service. The combination of the advanced control and a solenoid oil valve results in cleaner and quieter burner operation.
