Units use aluminized steel inshot burners with match-
ing tubular aluminized (stainless steel is an option) steel 
heat exchangers and two-stage redundant gas valves. 
two six-tube/burners for standard or low heat and two 
ninetube/ burners for medium heat. Burners in all units 
use a burner venturi to mix gas and air for proper combus-
tion. Combustion takes place at each tube entrance.
As hot combustion gases are drawn upward through each 
tube by the combustion air blower, exhaust gases are 
drawn out the top and fresh air/gas mixture is drawn in 
at the bottom. Heat is transferred to the air stream from 
all surfaces of the heat exchanger tubes. The supply air 
blowers, controlled by the Unit Controller A55, force air 
across all surfaces of the tubes to extract the heat of com-
bustion. The shape of the tubes ensures maximum heat 
exchange. The gas valves accomplish staging by allowing 
more or less gas to the burners as called for by heating 
demand.
