A motorized vent damper helps reduce standby losses up the chimney. Proven Cast Iron Durability The 15B Series uses a cast iron heat exchanger with cast‑iron push nipples for a long, leak‑resistant service life—ideal for baseboard and radiator systems. Installer‑Friendly Controls & Diagnostics An integrated Honeywell control with digital display and diagnostics streamlines setup and service. Built‑in low water cut‑off (LWCO) and high‑limit temperature control add protection. Flexible Piping & Simple Venting Left‑ or right‑side hydronic piping and electrical options make replacements easier. The low‑profile draft diverter reduces overall height, and the boiler vents as a Category I natural‑draft appliance to a lined masonry or listed metal chimney. Zoning‑Ready Hydronic Heating Pair the 15B‑175K with zone valves or circulators (not included) to serve multiple heating zones—great for larger homes or additions. The 1‑1/4" supply/return tappings support common residential manifold layouts.
