including all controls (except room thermostat). All necessary wiring is
factory installed. The boiler is ready for gas, water, room thermostat,
and electrical connections as shipped.
THERMAL-PIN, CAST-IRON SECTIONS
—These sections speed
heat transfer from the flue gases to the boiler water with faster
thermostat response, providing greater comfort and economy.
Maximum heat is produced at a lower level on the thermal-pin sections,
leading to peak efficiency.
INTEGRAL DRAFT

The Model BS1 and BS2 is
designed with automatic vent damper to recover chimney loss
during off cycle
.
SECTIONS TESTED

Each section is hydrostatically tested to
50 psig. Individual sections are tested to 125 psig at factory.
Assembled sections are tested to 75 psig at the factory. The
maximum allowable pressure is 50 psig for hot water boilers.
WARRANTY
—The cast-iron sections are covered by a non-prorated
