The Slant Fin XL-2000 Series Oil Boiler is designed for Hot Water applications. The XL-2000 boiler was created in order to help homeowners reduce their heating bills. The XL-2000 is a high efficiency boiler; there are 6 different size boilers in the XL Series. The heating capacity range for these boilers are 78,000 Btu’s per hour to 239,000 Btu’s per hour. These boilers are rated at an energy efficiency of 86%.
One of things that Slant Fin is known for is their quality products. The XL-2000 has a Cast Iron construction plus the heat exchanger is a cast iron material as well. Located inside the boiler are metal push nipples, these are a great contribution to the boiler’s efficiency. The push nipples are used to bring together the boiler sections. When the boiler is hot, these nipples expand to form a tight seal in the sections of the boiler. If there is a water leak, it will not leave the boiler.
You can be guaranteed that each boiler that is shipped is thoroughly tested. The heat exchangers are tested and they are tested under pressure of about 250 pounds (PSI) a normal home will have an operating pressure of about 12 PSI. The heat exchangers are also tested for heat transfer. These are all tested so the XL-2000 can bring a more efficient way to run your boiler and the system is burning cleaner flame, no harmful fumes or gases emanating from the burner system.
The burner system is factory installed with name brands such as Beckett, Riello or Carlin. The system includes a burner, the burner nozzle and a cone combination. All parts are tested and must meet safety inspection before they are shipped out.
Though these units are low maintenance but from time to time they are going to need inspections and some maintenance. The XL-2000’s parts are accessible and easy to remove. The flue collectors are easy removable and just as easy to put together again. This will cut down on the amount of time the technician is taking apart your boiler.
The way the system was designed and patterned, the spacing of the thermal pins allow the flue brush to move quickly and easily between the sections without getting stuck. Just by having this piece of technology, will keep your boiler running smooth and on target.
The XL-2000 has a compact design; it can be easily installed into tight spaces. Because of the lightweight components, these boilers can be easily taken down basement stairs without pulling out your back. The burner door is a swing out door making cleaning and service a breeze. The XL-2000 Oil Fired Boilers are hydrostatically tested; they have a factory installed relief valve that works on a 30 PSI working pressure.
