Heat transfer fluid (Primary Water) recirculated by thermal action up through heater tubes, past indirect heat exchanger and down.
Flue gases to vent.
This is the secret — Service hot water circulated continuously through the copper indirect heat exchanger, absorbing heat from warm Primary Water. Service hot water does not come in contact with hot flue gases; thus it remains below critical scaling and corrosion temperatures.
