Versa-Hydro-Solar ™ Combined Hydronic Appliance
The Versa-Hydro-Solar Combined Hydronic Appliance from HTP represents the latest innovations in hydronic heating technology. The Versa-Hydro is the first device available in the U.S. to integrate a high-efficiency water heater with a heating element, providing both domestic hot water and space heating with one compact, efficient device. The modulating condensing gas appliance operates at 93% combustion efficiency and 96% thermal efficiency, contributing not only to the environment’s well-being, but to the consumer’s as well. The all-in-one design of the Versa-Hydro results in considerable space and cost savings, setting a new standard for environmental responsibility, energy conservation, and consumer convenience.
Features
- High system efficiency even during low load conditions - the modulating burner operates at a 3 to 1 turndown ratio, while the space heating module operates at a 10 to 1 turndown ratio
- Low energy costs - resulting from ultra high 96% Thermal Efficiency and 93% Combustion Efficiency ratings
- Improved component life and reliability - modulation, along with thermal mass, eliminates the short cycling effect, which conserves energy and improves component reliability
- Enhanced comfort and efficiency - weather responsive outdoor reset controls match the supply temperature to the heating need, preventing overheating
- Appropriate for both residential and commercial applications - available in three gallon sizes (ranging from 55-119 gallons) and 2 BTU inputs (ranging from 130,000 to 99,000 BTUs)
- Low standby losses - the tank loses only ½ degree Fahrenheit per hour when the burner is off
- Virtually maintenance free operation - the robust material and sophisticated design of the heat exchanger minimize lime and scale buildup, eliminating the blockage risk that occurs with low-mass boilers
- Incredible system flexibility - built-in auxiliary taps provide connections to air handlers or supplemental storage tanks
- Space savings - the Versa-Hydro fits the equivalent of a 135,000 BTU boiler, an indirect water heater, and a buffer tank into one small footprint
- Simpler, less costly installation - the unique design eliminates the need for a primary-secondary loop, near boiler piping, boiler/indirect electrical connections, and isolation valves
- Optimum serviceability - removable front covers provide service technicians easy access to components
- Quality construction - an extremely durable cupronickel and stainless steel heat exchanger boasts excellent heat transfer properties and resists corrosion
- Convenient control interface:
A numeric control panel and LED lights display operational statuses, while an integrated USB connection allows boiler history to be displayed on a computer
- Eligible for tax credits and utility company rebates - based on high efficiency ratings
