THE PINNACLE LINE OF OIL-FIRED BOILERS is now eligible for federal tax credit. Recent changes made to federal tax credits for the purchase and installation of energy-efficient products mean consumers could receive as much as $1,500 towards boilers with a 90% or greater efficiency. The Pinnacle line is able to deliver 93% efficiency, thanks in part to superior condensing technology. Two firing rates are available, 0.5 GPH and 0.6 GPH, with input ranges from 70,000 Btuh to 84,000 Btuh, respectively. The heat exchanger is constructed of high alloy stainless steel for durability and corrosion-resistance. The direct-vent, sealed line of boilers offers a number of control options, including multiple temperature set points for both heating and domestic hot water.
