GOLD CGs — User’s Information Manual

Prevent combustion air contamination

Air contamination

Common household and hobby products often con- tain fluorine or chlorine compounds. When these chemicals pass through the boiler, they can form strong acids in the vent system or boiler. The acid can eat through the vent or boiler wall, causing serious dam-

age and presenting a possible threat of flue gas spillage into the building.

Please read the information below. If the contaminat- ing chemicals will be present, have your installer pipe the boiler air from outside per the Boiler Manual.

If the boiler is installed in any area likely to cause contamination, or if products which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, you must pipe combustion air to the boiler air intake. Contaminated combustion air will damage the boiler and vent system, resulting in possible severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

Do not operate a CGs boiler in a laundry room or pool facility, for example, without using ducted outside air. These areas will always contain contaminants.

GOLD CGs specifications

Weil-McLain has established itself as a leader in the heating industry, and the GOLD CG series is a testament to its commitment to innovation, efficiency, and performance. The GOLD CG is a high-efficiency gas boiler designed for both residential and commercial applications. With its robust construction and intelligent engineering, it provides reliable heating while minimizing fuel consumption.

One of the standout features of the GOLD CG series is its advanced cast iron heat exchanger. This allows for excellent heat retention and optimal efficiency, ensuring that the boiler operates at a high performance level while consuming less energy. The cast iron design not only promotes longevity but also helps in maintaining consistent heating throughout the space.

Another key characteristic of the GOLD CG series is its modulating gas burner. This technology enables the boiler to adjust its output in response to the current heating demands, resulting in improved efficiency and significant energy savings. This modulation reduces short cycling, which can lead to increased wear and tear on the system over time.

The GOLD CG boilers are equipped with a user-friendly control interface, allowing homeowners and property managers to easily monitor and adjust settings. The integrated control system features advanced diagnostics that simplify troubleshooting and maintenance, making it easy to keep the system running smoothly.

Moreover, the GOLD CG series supports a wide range of installation options, including natural gas or propane configurations. This adaptability ensures that it can meet various heating needs, whether in smaller residential settings or larger commercial environments. Additionally, the compact design allows for easy placement in tight spaces, making it a versatile choice for numerous applications.

Environmental considerations are also at the forefront of the GOLD CG series. The boilers are designed to operate efficiently, which helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings, these boilers meet or exceed most energy efficiency standards, contributing to a more sustainable heating solution.

In summary, the Weil-McLain GOLD CG series stands out for its combination of efficiency, advanced technology, and thoughtful design. With features like a durable cast iron heat exchanger, modulating gas burner technology, and user-friendly controls, it provides reliable heating for a variety of applications while promoting energy conservation and sustainability. Whether for residential or commercial use, the GOLD CG series represents a top-tier choice for modern heating needs.
