U.S. Boiler Company has released the new Alta Combi boiler, the industry’s first and only gas-adaptive combi boiler with 10:1 turndown.
The all-new Alta Combi high efficiency condensing boiler offers best in class, next-generation gas adaptive technology that provides the shortest installation time and lowest operating costs. The powerful gas-adaptive technology offers true “no touch” combustion setup. There are no manual throttle or offset adjustments. Engineered for five-minute start-up, the boiler’s control system provides continuous, automatic self-calibration of burner combustion by adapting to component wear, variations in fuel, environment, and vent air pressure to provide safe, efficient, and clean combustion at all times.
Converting from natural gas to LP is simple. No additional parts or conversion kits are needed. The Alta also includes a sensor-less reset, which performs the functions of a conventional outdoor reset without the need to install an outside sensor.
Domestic hot water response time is virtually instantaneous. Domestic hot water temperatures are maintained under all demand conditions, and the unit’s DHW recirculation system can be set to either economy or comfort mode.
At 95% AFUE, The Alta Combi is currently available with 136 MBH DHW input (3.7 GPM) / 120 MBH heating input. However, stay tuned! U.S. Boiler Company will be releasing a larger Alta Combi boiler (200 MBH DHW / 150 heating) and numerous heating-only Alta models (80, 120, 150 and 180 MBH) later this year.
Each Alta comes with value-added components and features, including an AltaFastPipe primary/secondary piping assembly, lift-away front and side panels for three-sided access, boiler flow safety switch (UL353) and display indicator, ProPress compatibility and a five-year parts warranty.

A. O. Smith (www.hotwater.com) has announced the launch of the Cyclone® LV, a large volume commercial water heater which rounds out the company’s industry-leading Cyclone family of high-efficiency gas products.
A. O. Smith created the LV model to serve the needs of facilities that require large storage for jobs with critical load requirements. The Cyclone LV model’s modulating process adjusts the burner’s firing rate to a specific demand, which allows for a highly efficient performance of up to 96% thermal efficiency while dramatically lowering operating costs. Available in 220- and 250-gallon capacities, these units allow engineers to specify two Cyclone LV units where they would have previously needed four Cyclone Mxi® units.
“The Cyclone family revolutionized the market in 1996 and provided innovation that we continue to build on today,” said Matt Schulz, senior product manager for commercial new products at A. O. Smith. “Cyclone LV models combine popular BTU inputs with new larger storage capacity. With the larger storage capacity a single LV unit can be used in place of multiple standard tanks freeing up space.”
Cyclone LV products feature advanced electronic control with built-in diagnostics and free iCOMM™ remote monitoring. LV models are designed for maneuverability and ease of installation due to their lightweight design.
