Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack Systems

GlobalTowne is pleased to announce we are now carrying the new Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack Systems.  GlobalTowne offers 2 different models, Hydro-Pak 190-45 SS and the Hydro-Pak 140-45 SS.  These mini rack systems come in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP). These units are designed for residential and light commercial water heating applications.

Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 190-45 SS
The Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 190-45 SS is a rack system designed for high volume residential and light commercial applications. The Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 190-45 SS Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid propane (LP) combines the benefits of tankless water heaters with a storage tank and pump to provide up to 525 gallons of hot water for the first hour of use and 480 gallons per hour thereafter at up to 8 gpm at a 35 degree temperature rise. When compared to the 32-38 gallon per hour rate of a standard 40-50 gallon tank, this Hydro-Pak Mini's high recovery rate and small footprint make it the ideal solution for all high volume residential and light commercial water heating applications.

The Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 190-45 SS comes with a Takagi 190,000 BTU TK-4-IN tankless water heater that provides an endless supply of hot water to a 45 gallon Stainless Steel (SS) storage tank. The inclusion of the storage tank eliminates the pressure drop, ensures there is no cold water sandwich in the lines, and maintains a standby heat loss of .5 degrees or less per hour. The Astro 250 Stainless Steel pump ensures that the tankless heater's minimum activation rate is met and keeps the tank supplied with hot water.

Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 140-45 SS
The Delta Temp Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 140-45 SS is a rack system designed for high volume residential and light commercial applications. The Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 140-45 SS Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) combines the benefits of tankless water heaters with a storage tank and pump to provide up to 456 gallons of hot water for the first hour of use and 396 gallons per hour thereafter at up to 6.6 gpm at a 35 degree temperature rise. When compared to the 32-38 gallon per hour rate of a standard 40-50 gallon tank, this Hydro-Pak Mini's high recovery rate and small footprint make it the ideal solution for all high volume residential and light commercial water heating applications.

The Hydro-Pak Mini Rack System 140-45 SS comes with a Takagi 140,000 BTU TK-Jr2-IN tankless water heater that provides an endless supply of hot water to a 45 gallon Stainless Steel (SS) storage tank. The inclusion of the storage tank eliminates the pressure drop, ensures there is no cold water sandwich in the lines, and maintains a standby heat loss of .5 degrees or less per hour. The Astro 250 Stainless Steel pump ensures that the tankless heater's minimum activation rate is met and keeps the tank supplied with hot water.

Periodic Maintenance for Bosch 1600P/520PN & 1600H/520HN

The Bosch gas tankless water heater model numbers 1600P and 1600H should have annual and periodic maintenance done to prolong the life of the heater.  Bosch Thermotechnology is no longer making the retail models 1600P and 1600H but the new models that replaced them are the Bosch 520PN and the Bosch 520HN.  GlobalTowne carries parts for the Bosch 1600P/520PN and the Bosch 1600H/520HN.

As per the installation manual, the heaters should be checked annually for any debris in the venting, cleaning of the inlet filter screen and cleaning of the water valve.  The water valve should be cleaned with white vinegar and then the pushrod inside the water valve should be lubricated with plumbers grease or silicon grease.  The Bosch tankless water heaters should have a water valve rebuild done every 3 - 5 years depending on the quality of the water where the heater is installed.  The water valve rebuild kit (WVKITCT) #7738001923 includes the metal retaining plate, 2 set screws, pushrod and a packet of lubricant.  Call GlobalTowne at 888-726-9752 to order the water valve kit and other parts.

Below is a diagram of the water valve.  Service bulletins can be downloaded off the Bosch website at www.bosch-climate.us

Bosch External Water Filter

The Bosch external water filter part number 8703305356 replaces the existing smaller internal water filter screen inside certain Bosch tankless water heaters.  The external water filter allows for easy access to clean the inlet screen periodically.  Without the external water filter it is very difficult to get at the inlet screen inside the heater.  The Bosch external water filter is designed to be used for Bosch models 250SX/2400E/2400ES/2700ES.  The Bosch Integra 500/Evolution 500/2400ES/2700ES came with the external water filter.

The Bosch external water filter was also good for the older model Bosch heaters such as the older 635ES/635ESO/830ES/940ES/940ESO/C800ES/Therm C950ES/Therm C1050ES and C1210ES/C1210ESC

All of the newer model Bosch tankless water heaters 830ES/940ES/Greentherm C950ES/Greentherm C1050ES/ C1210ES/C1210ESC have the built in inlet filter screen.  See image below as it shows the inlet filter screen where the cold water connection is.

Bosch AquaStar Universal Hydro Generator

The Bosch Universal Hydro Generator, part number 8707406104 (87074061040 or 8-707-406-104-0) is designed to work with all newer Bosch Therm 520HN tankless water heaters as well as all older model hydro generated units.  The universal hydro generator comes with miscellaneous water pipes, gaskets and bushings to adapt to the older units. The hydro generator works with water flow and has a small wheel that spins when the water starts to flow. The small wheel inside has a magnet on it that when spinning produces a certain amount of mili volts that is transferred through a couple wires to the ignition unit and that in turn lets the ignition unit light the pilot and then the main burner.  There is no need for any electrical power to operate the heater.

The older units that would require the universal hydro generator are the Bosch model 125HX, 425HN, 425HNO, 1600H and the Bosch WR400 series heater WR400-7K V1G23S3195.  The new universal Hydro Generator part replaces all older hydrogenerators such as 8707406043 (87074060430 or 8-707-406-043-0), 8707426026 (87074260260 or 8-707-426-026-0), 8707406059 (87074060590 or 8-707-406-059-0), 8707406069 (87074060690 or 8-707-406-069-0), 8707406095 (87074060950 or 8-707-406-095-0) and 8707406071 (87074060710 or 8-707-406-071-0).

3" Z-Flex Stainless Steel Venting for Marey 16L ETL Tankless Water Heater

GlobalTowne carries all the 3" stainless steel Z-Flex venting needed for venting the Marey 16L ETL tankless water heater.  The Marey 16L ETL gas tankless water heater must be vented with 3" single wall stainless steel venting.  Please be sure that when installing the Marey 16L ETL that you start with the 3" Universal Adapter part number 2SVSNA03.5 on top of the heater.  The universal adapter makes for a much easier installation and is needed for attaching the 3" stainless steel venting. 

The Marey 16L ETL is a direct vent unit and must be vented to the outside.  The Marey 16L ETL cannot be common vented or vented into a chimney.  The Marey 16L ETL can be vented horizontally out the sidewall or vertical up through the roof.  If venting horizontal out the sidewall make sure to angle the venting a 1/4" per foot.  When venting vertical up through the roof you must use a Vertical Condensate Drain Tee part number 2SVEVWCF03 and a Condensate Drain Tube Kit 24" part number 2SVEDTK24.

Replacing a Bosch Aquastar 125FX with a Bosch Therm 830ES

The older Bosch Aquastar model 125FX came in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) and was 117,000 BTU and was a direct vent unit that was good for one major application at a time.  The 125FX had electronic ignition and was fan-assisted and took its combustion air from the room it was installed in.  The heater had a built-in fan so the heater could be vented right out the sidewall of the building.  The Aquastar 125FX had to be vented with 4" sealed stainless steel venting going a maximum of 15' out the sidewall of the building into the FXHood.  The FX Hood was a termination hood specifically designed for the 125FX and had a built-in flapper to keep cold air from penetrating the vent pipe and freezing the heater.  The Bosch Aquastar 125FX is discontinued now and has not been made for over 8 years or so.  One of the closest replacement models for the 125FX would be the new Bosch Therm 830ES.

Bosch Therm 830ES

The new Bosch 830ES comes in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) and is 175,000 BTU which is slightly more BTUs than the older 125FX.  The Bosch 830ES needs a minimum of a 3/4" gas line and has 3/4" water connections also.  The 830ES is a sealed unit and takes its intake air from the outside using 3" PVC.  The unit is vented to the outside using 3" Stainless steel venting and this could be attached to the FX Hood that is already in place using a 3" to 4" increaser (Z-Flex Part #2SVSI0304).  The 830ES is digitally controlled and can go from 100 - 140 degrees F.  See below for more specifications and capacity.

Outdoor Installation of Bosch 330PN, 520PN & 520HN

In past years, Bosch had always had naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters that were specifically designed for the outdoors.  The 117,000 BTU Bosch 125BO and 425HNO outdoor units were designed for outdoor use; however, they were discontinued about three years ago.  The Bosch 125BO and the 425HNO did not require any power to operate and were naturally drafting. They also did not require any venting. (These heaters did come with a power cord, but the power cord was only to provide for freeze protection and was not required for the regular operation of the water heater.)

The only outdoor Bosch tankless water heaters that are currently available are direct vent units and they require power to operate and have a special outdoor vent cap (BTOK) to protect them from the elements.  These specific outdoor units also have built-in freeze protection that is good for ambient freezes for short periods of time.

Bosch does still offer three different naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters that do not require any power to operate and are intended for indoor use but can be installed outside under special situations. The Bosch 330PN, Bosch 520PN and the Bosch 520HN are all naturally drafting units that require no power to operate.  These units come in either Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP). 

These units can be mounted outside if they are well protected from the elements and are able to get plenty of combustion air when in operation (See Image below of Bosch 330PN LP installed outdoors on a tree).  The 75,000 BTU Bosch Therm 330PN and the 117,000 BTU Bosch Therm 520PN and 520HN tankless water heaters will not be covered under any manufacturer's warranty if the unit freezes or if the heater gets damaged by rain.  Bosch Thermotechnology may void any warranty for the heater at their discretion as the Bosch 330PN, 520PN and the 520HN are intended for indoor applications.

This photo shows the Bosch 330PN-LP installed in a protected case with a sloped roof. The case is open on the bottom to allow for the easy flow of make-up air.

This photo shows the 330PN-LP from the front view with a hinge on the custom-built case that allows for easy access to the tankless water heater's controls.

Venting a Bosch Therm 330PN into an Existing Chimney

The Bosch Therm 330PN is a naturally drafting gas tankless water heater and must be vented to the outside using a minimum of a 4" diameter galvanized type B gas vent.  Under no circumstances should the vent pipe be reduced in size.  There must be a minimum of a 12" rise off the top of the heater before any 45's or 90 degree elbows.  If there is to be a horizontal section before going into the chimney then try and keep it as short as possible.  The maximum horizontal run allowed is half of the total vertical vent height.  45's, 90 degree elbows and any horizontal length is not to be considered in the total gas vent height.

The Chimney the Bosch 330 PN tankless water heater is venting into must be the only thing going into the chimney.  The galvanized type B gas vent must run all the way up the chimney to an approved rain cap.  The minimum vertical vent height is 6 ft and any horizontal vent connectors or elbows are not to be considered in the total gas vent height.  All gas vent sections of pipe must be screwed together with sheet metal screws and properly supported.  The Bosch 330 PN may be vented into the chimney alone as long as it is lined with the correct tile or metal ling.  Consult local codes for proper lining of chimney.  You may not vent any other fuel burning appliances into any free space remaining in the chimney.  Please see the illustration below for venting into the chimney and always follow the instructions listed in the installation manual for the heater.

A = Minimum of 6 ft. rise
1.  Listed approved Rain Cap
2.  Horizontal vent connection rising 1/4" per ft.
3.  Establish a 12" rise before any elbows

Venting a Bosch Therm 520PN or 520HN into an Existing Chimney

The Bosch Therm 520PN and Bosch Therm 520HN are both naturally drafting gas tankless water heaters and must be vented to the outside using a minimum of a 5" diameter galvanized type B gas vent.  6" diameter type B gas vent is required for all installations over 2,000 ft above sea level.  Under no circumstances should the vent pipe be reduced in size.  There must be a minimum of a 12" rise off the top of the heater before any 45's or 90 degree elbows.  If there is to be a horizontal section before going into the chimney then try and keep it as short as possible.  The maximum horizontal run allowed is half of the total vertical vent height.  45's, 90 degree elbows and any horizontal length is not to be considered in the total gas vent height.

The Chimney the Bosch tankless water heater is venting into must be the only thing going into the chimney.  The galvanized type B gas vent must run all the way up the chimney to an approved rain cap.  The minimum vertical vent height is 6 ft and any horizontal vent connectors or elbows are not to be considered in the total gas vent height.  All gas vent sections of pipe must be screwed together with sheet metal screws and properly supported.  The masonry chimney may have to be tile or metal lined before the insertion of the gas vent pipe.  Consult local codes for proper lining of chimney.  You may not vent any other fuel burning appliances into any free space remaining in the chimney.  Please see the illustration below for venting into the chimney and always follow the instructions listed in the installation manual for the heater.

A = Minimum of 6 ft. rise

Replacing Older Bosch Tankless with The Bosch Therm 830ES

The Bosch Therm 830ES Non-Condensing tankless water heater is a top performance, gas tankless water heater from Bosch. This 175,000 BTU heater is designed for residential applications and can deliver hot water up to 140 degrees F with a 8.3 GPM flow rate at a 35 degree rise.  Not approved for space heating applications.

This Energy Star approved tankless water heater can produce enough hot water for 2 major applications in most homes.

The Bosch Therm 830ES heater features an electronic ignition system and can vent through either 3 inch or 4 inch diameter stainless steel vent pipe either through the side wall or up through the roof. A stainless steel concentric side-wall venting option (ESHCK-Full-Kit) is also available.

The Bosch 830ES heater comes with built-in Freeze Protection but it does not come with the 3/4" PRV and the External Water Filter.  The freeze prevention kit is designed to provide protection for the water heater down to approximately 5°F for short term conditions only. It will not protect the appliance in areas where the temperature is routinely expected to be below freezing.  The freeze prevention kit will not protect plumbing outside the appliance from freezing.

The Bosch Therm 830ES is a wholesale model heater and sold to licensed plumbers and contractors.  The new Bosch Therm 830ES is a close replacement for older models such as the Bosch 250SX/250SXO, 635ES/635ESO and the 2400E.  Please be aware the 830ES is 7" taller, 2.375" wider and 2.75" deeper than the previous models. The Bosch 830ES is a direct replacement for the Bosch 2400ES.  For outdoor installations the Bosch 830ES would require the BTOK Outdoor Kit.

The Bosch Therm 830ES comes with a limited 15 year warranty on the heat exchanger and 5 years on all other parts.  Service and labor costs are not covered.
