Durability:

• 100% refractory firebox; no metal to corrode or degrade.
• No corrosion or burn through as with welded steel combustion chambers.
• Thermal heat storage in 100% refractory firebox weighing in excess of 1000 pounds.
• Heat retention, hours after wood is burned away.
• Rebuild-able construction of the entire refractory assembly.
• Modular stainless steel tank system for easy repair and maintenance.
• Digital over temperature controls to protect combustion system from over-firing.
• No sprayed-on insulation; all insulation is easily replaced.

Feedback:

• Digital boiler display shows status of the heater at a glance, without opening the door.
• Emergency mode outdoor lamp - improper operation flashing lamp remotely signals a problem.
• Low water signal and boiler shutdown (unit will not operate in a low water condition).
• Optional Remote Displays available (see below).
• Optional Display Software available (see below).

User Convenience:

• Computer controlled, automatic operation including automatic bypass damper and combustion controls.
• Freeze protection and automatic heater shutdown with high water temperature.
• Flexible operating settings for hydronic pump activation.

Remote Display: 

• The same digital display installed on the side of the Skye Series heater can be located in any convenient remote location.
• Monitor delivered water, combustion, chimney, and boiler cabinet temperatures.
• Remotely view/verify the heater status and operator actions.
• Detect abnormal conditions of low water, high water temp, etc.
• Radio communication allows wireless location of this remote display at any convenient location: home, garage, shed, etc.

Performance:

• Low emissions and high combustion efficiency.
• Electronically controlled proportional control for superior temperature stability.
• Rapid response to slight changes in heat draw rates for uniform heating.
• Computer managed “Smart Circulation” for a combination of rapid response to spikes in heat demand and high heating capacity. A standby tank is engaged when heat needs to be dissipated or with spikes in heat demand.
• 230 gallon tanks on-board.

Display Software:

• The optional remote display software optimizes the heater user experience on your laptop or home computer, wirelessly.
• View the status of your heater in real-time.
• Change settings such as water temperature and pump activation temperatures.
• View total hours of heater use, total hours of hardware use, and temperature history graphically.
• Create and store maintenance, use, or any other useful notes.
• View log files of the history of operation to help improve performance.
• Update boiler software, operational settings, manually control pumps, blower, and motors to verify proper connections.
