Biasi 3 Wood Cast Iron Boiler

Wood boilers have come a long way from what they used to be!

One of Houseneeds newest additions is the

Biasi Wood Boiler 3 Pass Technology with Btu output of up to 120,000 - ASME certified and ETL approved

The Biasi 3 WOOD is a new generation of wood boiler that challenges our oil dependency. It is efficient, easy to use, and produces low emissions.

Unlike wood boilers from the past, the Biasi 3WOOD dispels the notion that wood boilers are labor intensive, inefficient and polluting. 3WOOD offers consistent high efficiency with a large heat exchange surface and secondary combustion chamber.
he Biasi 3WOOD wood boilers water-cooled grates, large finned firebox and secondary combustion chamber maximize the burn time and minimize wood consumption. Easy adjustments to the automatic temperature control, secondary air regulator, and flue gas damper enhance fire maintenance.For over 70 years, the BIASI foundry has maintained a reputation for precision pressure castings and quality control that exceeds all international standards. The 3WOOD series is available in four sizes ranging from 89,000 to 120,000 BTU/HR. All threads and fittings are compatible with North American controls and accessories. 3WOOD, the only ASME certified and ETL approved cast iron wood boiler on the market, embodies the design innovation of QHT BIASI.




1st Pass

Wood burns in a large,finned combustion chamber with water-cooled grates.

2nd Pass

Vented firebox gasses mix with very hot, preheated air in the secondary combustion chamber thereby enhancing oxidation.

3rd Pass

Remaining exhaust heat is given-up in a wide finned, self-cleaning passageway before exiting the boiler.

HeatLink Plumbing PEX Tubing
 
You can plumb your entire house with Heat-Link Plumbing PEX. The HeatLink Potable Water System features PureLink PEX-a tubing, the EasyFit manifold system. The unique HeatLink PEX-a process is based on a method developed during the 1970’s and uses organic peroxide to chemically cross-link the polyethylene during the manufacturing process. The PEX-a process produces a higher degree and greater uniformity in crosslinking, resulting product with significantly improved material properties with respect to temperature, pressure, strength and chemical resistance. Press sleeve technology has been used for decades worldwide in plumbing systems, and has also been used extensively for pneumatic and hydraulic applications.

HeatLink’s superior potable water system carries all necessary approvals for North American installations, and offers significant advantages and benefits in comparison to both copper and most common PEX plumbing systems in use today.
 
 
Heatlink EasyFit Plumbing PEX Manifolds - Example
Heatlink Easyfit Pex Manifolds come in 2 and 3 Port Tees and are sold with 1/2" PEX adapters. So just order the actual amount of ports you need and you should be good to go. There are several different End Connection you need to choose from as well as 3/4" Tee to allow you to send hot or cold water to a separte plumbing manifold in a different location. If you want to use this manifold with 3/8 Inch PEX tubing - buy our Coupler 1/2 by 3/8 inch for each branch you want to use with 3/8 Inch PEX.


Use silicone lubricant to lubricate dry o-rings to ensure a tight seal.
In case a leak develops during testing, remove pressure from system, clean the o-ring, and reapply silicon lube.
When placing the manifold into the supporting bracket, place the bottom snap-in lock in the bottom (braced) notch in bracket and then rotate it so that the top snaps into place.
In order to prevent stress on the manifold supply end connections, the supply piping must be braced or supported, parallel to the manifold and centred with the manifold’s inlets.  Please visit us at  Houseneeds.com to purchase products.
