Space Requirements – 3,000 MBH Boiler

BRYAN Other Water Tubes

Competitive water tube boilers can require twice as much space for service for half as much capacity. Bryans' standard and reverse combination make it the best investment.

Space requirements. Bryan flexible water tube steel boilers generally require less floor space than comparable cast iron units. The bent tube, removable from only one side, requires approximately 24 to 32 inches of service area, the same as most cast iron boilers.

With a firetube steel boiler, the floor space used by the unit itself must be doubled in order to accommodate tube replacement.

An additional space-saving benefit of Bryan flexible water tube steel boilers is reverse construction. This optional design allows two boilers to face each other, thus sharing the same service area and saving space in the mechanical room.

Cleaning.Generally speaking, easy access makes Bryan flexible water tube steel boilers more convenient to clean than either cast iron or firetube units.

Removing a Bryan boiler’s jacket access door and tube panel exposes the entire bank of flexible water tubes. An ordinary flue brush and vacuum cleaner are all that is needed for complete cleaning.

Maintenance.With cast iron or firetube boilers, replacing the unit or tubes often means complete disassembly, welding, rolling and an outside contractor. The water tubes in a Bryan flexible water tube steel boiler, on the

other hand, can be replaced by a general maintenance worker in about thirty minutes.

Replacement tubes are available from Bryan representatives within twenty-four hours. And, most temporary tube repairs may be made in minutes allowing operations to continue until replacement tubes arrive.

Bryan design provides easy access for the service and maintenance of tubes and burner.
