Challenge:
Venting of three (3) Unilux Forced-Draft boilers (14,000 MBH ea.) without challenging the architectural aesthetics of the building.
Solution:
Installation of a side -wall venting 8-fan CASV400 Chimney Automation System with multiple variable speed drives. The venting system was downsized from 38”ID to 28”ID for cost-savings.

Challenge:
To place the boiler room in an accessible location and allow
visitors to see the operation of the heating appliances. The boiler stack had to be exposed so everybody could see it was a part of the boiler room. The boiler system consists of two (2) Fulton Pulse Boilers rated at 1,400MBH ea.
Solution:
Installation of a CASV system with a round fan painted in the stack’s color so it blends in. The system improves the operating efficiency of the Fulton pulse boilers.

Challenge:
Insufficient stack capacity to vent all Cleaver-Brooks 500LE boilers
when operating simultaneously, but excessive draft when operating on a partial load.
Solution:
Installation of a CASV450-7 system with multiple variable speed drives to handle full-fire operation. The CASV system was combined with a 48” over-draft damper system which monitored and controlled excessive draft situations. Both draft control systems are monitored simultaneously by a single EBC30 controller.

Challenge:
Most centers needed numerous roof penetrations to vent heaters,
dryers and kitchen ventilation equipment. In the original layout the venting would lead to code violations due to excessive runs.
Solution:
The dryers are vented via a common duct that is served by a MDVS500, Mechanical Dryer Venting System™. A GSV400 grease fan serves the kitchen in the center’s bistro.

Challenge:
Eight (8) Patterson-Kelley Model SN-2000-2 condensing boilers were
divided into two banks of four and the layout did not allow for compliance with venting codes. The venting was required to terminate at a specific location with other equipment. A mechanical draft system would be required to make the
boilers operate efficiently at their rated capacity.
Solution:
A CASV450-2 was designed and the flue size was reduced to 20”ID. The fan termination is located next to the combustion air inlets and hidden from view.

Challenge:
Replacement of old brick-type boilers with six (6) Thermal Solutions EVH-2000 condensing boilers as part of an Energy Conservation Project. The project will later be expanded with another two boilers. Vented by a new AL29-4C material stack material within the existing stack.
Solution:
Installation of a CASV450 Chimney Automation System to allow for
common venting of Cat. IV appliances. Sized to provide stack size reduction and allow for future expansion.

Challenge:
Venting of eight (8) Thermal Solution EVH-2000 boilers for the field heating systems and two (2) A.O. Smith 4,000MBH Boilers for domestic water heating system. The venting system consisted of long horizontal and vertical runs with many elbows.
Solution:
Installation of a CASV450-2 system for the field heating system, a
CASV 450-4 for the domestic water heaters and two (2) additional CASV315’s for water heaters on other concourse levels.

Challenge:
The original design called for individually vented Category IV appliances, but no manufacturer would guarantee appliance operation and efficiency due to a venting system running 150 feet. The combustion louver needed for natural venting was 30’x15’ with a 12’ well, which was unacceptable. .
Solution:
The appliances were vented individually to the outside where the vents were connected into a plenum box. Eight (8) RSV450s mounted sideways on the plenum box maintain proper draft for the appliances while controlled by multiple Variable Speed Drives. The combustion louver was replaced by a MCAS500-2 system and two (2) 16” inlet ducts. Both systems are controlled by a single EBC30 controller.
