Product description
The B-Series Heating Systems (boilers) with integrated calorifier control are designed to generate heat for the heating of water for a central heating system. The boilers of this series heat the boiler water by means of a pressure jet burner which is installed on the front of the boiler. For fuel, diesel oil has to be used. The Btap-Series Heating Systems (boilers) are also designed to generate heat for the heating of water for a central heating system and also for the generation of domestic hot water by means of an integrated water spiral. They also heat the central heating water by means of a pressure jet burner on the front of the boiler. For fuel, diesel oil has to be used. (At special request, there is also a model which operates on kerosene.)
