Reliable technology

Low mass design. The Bobcat boiler utilizes an advanced low mass heat exchanger design that makes it highly reliable and robust. Bobcat’s patented 14-pass continuous flow design, with 1-inch water passages, helps maintain better velocity, prevent plugging and virtually eliminates risk of flashing into steam.

Knitted metal fiber burner

Designed specifically for high efficiency condensing boiler applications, ensures extremely low emissions and full modulation. The burner’s metallic composition enhances the flame detection signal for reliable performance. The boiler utilizes a reliable spark ignition system.

Modulation reduces wasteful cycling, maximizes fuel savings

Just as stop and go driving wastes fuel, so does on and off cycling of your boiler.  On very cold days your boiler may operate continuously to heat your home.  However, on warmer days, an ordinary boiler with unchanging output will repeatedly turn its burner on and off. This puts out lots of BTUs for short periods of time, wasting  fuel with every new ignition. On warmer days, the Bobcat automatically reduces its BTU input using a proper lower level of fuel consumption. This reduces cycling dramatically. In addition, the heat exchanger enters the condensing mode. Here, the Bobcat maximizes heat extraction from the combustion process and significantly reduces your fuel bills.

Microprocessor manages boiler performance

With information it receives from an outdoor sensor, room thermostat, flame sensor  and other devices on the boiler the control monitors boiler performance and controls temperatures and the sequence of operation. It can also control the domestic hot water temperatures, output and fuel saving modes. LED readout on the control panel displays current conditions, set-up details and diagnostic information.

Sealed combustion offers added economies and safety

The Bobcat boiler operates in total isolation from household air. The combustion process is “sealed” inside the boiler, with intake air and exhaust pipes connected directly to the outdoors. However, when the alternative non-direct venting method is chosen, inside air is used for combustion.

Easy, smooth installation- almost anywhere in house

The lightweight Bobcat boiler is designed for easy handling and speedy installation. The shipping crate lifts right off and built-in lifting ports on the boiler assist in moving it from skid to floor or wall mount location. Other Bobcat boiler features include top connections for water, gas, vent and electric. PVC, CPVC or stainless steel pipe can be used for intake and exhaust. 100 feet of equivalent length pipe can be used, allows you to install boiler almost anywhere. Quick seal vent pipe connections ensure easy positive seal.
