The Laars-Stor SS utilizes a superior grade of type 444 passivated stainless steel for the tank and the heat transfer coil. This construction is lightweight and also resists pitting while minimizing inter-granular and stress corrosion. The Laars-Stor SS models provide superior thermal conductivity for higher efficiency.
Features:
- Stainless Steel Tank and Heat Exchanger - Made from chromium molybdenum - titanium ferritic 444 stainless steel alloy.
- Stainless Steel Heat Exchanger - Single-wall 1" (25mm) O.D. stainless steel coil. Maximum supply temperature from the boiler must not exceed 240°F (116°C).
- Factory Installed Sediment Reducing Inlet Tube - Sediment reducing device that also increases first hour rating of hot water while minimizing temperature build-up in tank (excluding LS-SS-120-L).
- Immersed Adjustable Honeywell Aquastat - Supplied with a fast acting immersion aquastat for automatic temperature control (adjustable from 80-160°F / 27-71°C).
- Supply and Return Connections - 1" NPT female connections are located on the front for both the boiler supply and boiler return.
- Insulation System - 2" (51 mm) Non-CFC foam insulation covers the sides and top of the tank, reducing heat loss. This results in less energy consumption, improved efficiencies, and jacket rigidity.
- Potable Water Connections - 3/4" NPT (1" NPT on LS-SS-120-L).
- T&P Relief Valve - Included.
- Low Restrictive Brass Drain Valve - Durable tamper proof design (excluding the LS-SS-120-L).
- AHRI Certified - These water heaters are rated by the Air-Conditioning,
Heating, and Refrigeration Institute to provide accurate performance
data within the standards of the certification. This certification provides a
recognized standard for proper comparison of hydronic appliances
