Product Q&A
6 QuestionsQ: Could this boiler be used with a brick chimney with a 8" by 8" clay liner without any condensation issues? I am in Massachusetts. If it does do I need a single pass boiler to avoid lining the chimney? Thanks, Bryan
Asked by Bryan 13 years ago

I am a Chimney tech from Maine and I see new boilers vented on clay liners all the time. this is not the right way to vent a high efficacy boiler. they need to have a stainless steel liner at least a 316 alloy. over time the liner will begin to break down and flake away. this will lead to your clay liners collapsing and causing a blockage and sending the exhaust gasses into you home to KILL you! if your updating your heating system update your chimney as well. it will save you thousands in the long run.
Hi Bryan: I put one in about 4 years ago. I was with the burner technician this weekend and he had nothing but good things to say about this boiler/burner combination. I am in coastal CT, so it is probably a lot warmer on average here. Mine is in the basement with a two story tile lined brick chimney that is 9x12 I think. No problem so far. I think most experts will tell you that it may only be a matter of time, since I actually have it fired at 0.5 GPH which is very low. The house doesn't require much heat and no boilermate, so 1/2 gall on per hour is plenty, even during the coldest snaps. It helps quiet the burner down and seems to save fuel. The tech says it is a little more exacting to get it burning correctly, so I say get a really good tech who knows Riello to do your service. Peter
My feeling is that you would be fine, unless say you had a very long chimney (say a 3 story house + basement) and ran the boiler in short bursts.This boiler as good efficiency relative to it's 'class' but it still puts out a high enough exhaust temperature to keep the chimney dry. I use this boiler with a stainless lining within an 8x8 chimney, it pulls draft immediately so is probably not creating any significant condensation on start up, and certainly not after running for a couple of minutes. I also live in New England and have a two story house worth of chimney length. I doubt the clay liner would take all that much longer that the stainless steel to heat up above the condensation temperature. Just anecdotal evidence here though, hopefully someone with your particular situation will be able to respond.
Q: Can this boiler be converted to gas?
Asked by Happy owner considering changing to gas 14 years ago
Add your answer
Yes this boiler can be converted to gas. In fact Riello make a gas burner that would fit perfectly, 40 GS3 I believe. However, I'm sure you can find the boiler by itself without the oil burner to save some money.
Per the manufacturer you have to change the burner from oil to gas.
Hi: Page 20 of the manual here: http://s3.pexsupply.com/manuals/***.****74/17081_PROD_FILE.pdf shows settings for both LPG and natural gas. I would talk to both Pex and Biasi to verify that your setup will work. I installed this boiler fired with oil two years ago and it has been great. It is high quality and efficient, without the price of the Viessmann or Buderus . The Riello burner is great, but make sure you get someone who knows how to set them up. My first contractor had some difficulty with it but the next one got it fine tuned. Before that, it was loud and not burning all that cleanly. Peter
Q: Are the aquastat and ciculator pump included? Thanks

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe aquastat is included, but this unit does not come with a circulator.
Q: Does this boiler come with the "controller kit" required for installation. My plumber is asking. If not, do you sell it and how much does it cost? Thanks.

Q: will this boiler support a tankless hot water add on?
Asked by 15 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffBiasi's B-10 series boiler system does not support tankless hot water. You would have to use an indirect hot water storage tank. This allows the boiler to run more efficiently.
Q: Can you connect a oil boiler and a hot water heater to the same hydronic system? How do you connect?
Asked by 16 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffOil boilers and indirect water heaters can be connected to the same hydronic system. In terms of installation, refer to the boiler manual or seek a licensed technician.
by adding a zone to your boiler you can add an indirect water heater which is a water heater that has feed and return pipes for the boiler side and hot and cold pipes for the domestic side.
