Mor-Flo/American Comfort Systemsn.: utilizing a Polaris water heater as a single energy source, will heat homes, the hot water used in those homes

- and in any climate. These reliable and energy-efficient systems, designed primarily for use with forced air heating, combine the PolariS with Mor-Plo/American Air HeatersTM Compact ceiling, wall and closet Air Heaters come in space heating capacities of 14.000 Btu/hr, and higher. In addition, Air Heaters are supplied with a DX cooling coil for air conditioning during warmer months.

After haVing proven themselves in extensive laboratory and inthe-field tests. Polaris water heaters are now providing +94% thermal efficiency in installations nationwide. With its compact size

- 22 inches in diameter, 48 inches tall, 34 gallon capacity

- the Polaris is engineered with inputs of 100.000 Btu/hr* and will provide more than enough hot water to heat homes and the water used in those homes. The Polaris also can be used in many commercial water heating applications. There are a number of reasons why these reliable, high-efficiency water heaters provide optimum energy efficiency.

'Varies with installed vent-pipe length. The submerged stainless steel combustion chamber is completely surrounded by water. This eliminates bottom heat loss and reduces energy consumption. The design provides almost nOiseless operation. When the thermostat calls for heat, the igniter is activated. The power blower and negative pressure gas valve force air and gas into the combustion chamber and the burner ignites. The combustion heat is forced into the flue coil. However. the flue, rather than exiting at the top of the tank, coils down and around the combustion chamber and exits at the bottom of the tank. The water in the tank continually draws heat from the hot gases in the flue coil. Normal flue losses are eliminated dUring standby because the heat cannot descend without being forced by the power blower. Another Significant advantage is that these condensing. low temperature flue gases can be vented through an outside wall using 2-inch ABS {or CPVC) pipe. Additionally, outside combustion air can be prOVided with 2" ABS or CPVC pipe. In short. the Polaris can be installed in homes or light commerdal buildings Without chimneys.
