Ascent Combi and Ascent Plus Combi Boilers
New Combi Boiler Technology Leap Frogs Old Fashioned Tankless Technology to Cut Fuel Bills Up to 20% or More! Energy efficient by combining heat and hot water in one boiler! In fact, Ascent Combi boilers are not only more efficient, but they are much quieter than traditional tankless coil boilers, and their comparable prices make the decision to upgrade an easy one. If fuel conversion, hot water and longevity are concerns, homeowners will be thrilled to learn that Ascent Combi boilers run on oil heat, natural gas, propane or bioheat (B5) fuels and a simple burner change allows the homeowner to easily switch fuel sources in the future. Also, the Ascent Combi’s world class plate heat exchanger delivers much more hot water than a tankless coil system, and there are no coil flanges to fail or cast iron sections to leak leading to its unprecedented longevity.
Energy Kinetics is family owned and operated and was founded in 1979 with the vision that heating and hot water systems can be much more efficient if they have simple, smarter controls and design, and are built to last.
In 2017, we decided the timing was right to take our proven 30 year spiral boiler platform and innovate to provide heat and hot water, but without the need for a storage tank…all at a price point that’s competitive with tankless coil boilers.
3 Advancements that Allow “Ascent™” Boilers to Outperform Cast Iron Ones
- INTELLIGENT BY DESIGN
Smart Controls
The Ascent Hydrostat allows you to adjust settings to match your individual life style. For greater savings, select a Smart Learning Mode at the touch of a button for on-demand operation. If you don’t use hot water overnight during the summer, your boiler doesn’t have to run!
In fact, the Ascent Hydrostat is so smart, it learns your weekly routines and is ready when you typically need hot water – and saves your energy when you don’t.
To cut up to 40% or more off heating bills, learn more about our Resolute™, System 2000® or Accel CS™ boilers, each is a boiler with “the brain”, an advanced Energy Manager control.
- REVOLUTIONARY RELIABILITY
Plate Heat Exchanger
Plate heat exchangers are the best and most widely used way boilers make hot water in the world.
Our plate heat exchanger delivers continuous hot water unmatched by any tankless coil boiler. There are no studs to break or gaskets to leak with easy service union connections. Our Sealix® permanent non-stick coated surfaces prevent lime and mineral build up for exceptional long term performance in hard water applications.
- THE SYSTEM
Innovative Design and Engineering
The engineers at Energy Kinetics have deconstructed every component of the conventional tankless coil boiler and used superior design and materials to recreate it as a much higher efficiency design that produces more hot water for longer. The design is also much more robust than wall hung and other combi boilers that are prone to fouling and short life from tiny flue and water passes. With dozens of improvements over traditional boilers, you will understand why it easily outlasts and outperforms the competition. These improvements include, but are not limited to the following:
- The Ascent Hydrostat™, smart control for home comfort! (see #1 above)
- The energy converter is a proven 30 year spiral design for the highest efficiency. There are no sections or pins to foul, clean, or leak.
- Removable stainless steel alloy combustion chamber for clean burning operation.
- 13 foot flue passage boosts efficiency.
- Hefty 2 inch thick insulation wrap for high efficiency and quiet operation.
- Swing down door for easy access.
- Advanced plate heat exchanger. (see #2 above)
- Clean In Place (CIP) valves for the plate heat exchanger and mixing valves.
- Flow switch for fast hot water response.
- High performance mixing valve for consistent hotwater temperature (CIP).
- Air elimination for quiet operation.
- Boiler-side Y-Strainer (CIP).
- High efficiency Taco circulators.
- Hard water? Add a scale stopper for reliable operation (up to 25 grains of hardness) without cleaning!
