Notes
1
As an Energy Star Partner, Weil-McLain
has determined that boilers meet the
Energy Star guidelines for energy ef-
ficiency.
NOTE: Adjusting boiler firing rate will
affect AFUE rating.
2
Based on standard test procedures
prescribed by the United States Depart-
ment of Energy.
NOTE that only Heating Capacity and
AFUE are certified by AHRI. AFUE is
also know as Annual Fuel Utilization
Efficiency or Seasonal Efficiency.
3
Net ratings are based on net installed
radiation of sufficient quantity for the
requirements of the building and noth-
ing need be added for normal piping
and pickup. Ratings are based on a pip-
ing and pickup allowance of 1.15. An
additional allowance should be made
for unusual piping and pickup loads.
4
Boilers must be direct-vented.
Boilers require special venting. Use
only the vent materials and methods
specified in this manual.
WMB-155C boiler venting is 3”
only.
All vent and air pipe elbows must
be sweep elbows, NOT short-radius
elbows.
5
Ratings shown are for sea level applica-
tions only. For altitudes from sea level
to 4,500 feet above sea level, please refer
to page 56.
6
All of the boilers will automatically
de-rate as vent/air pipe length increases,
due to the pressure loss through the
piping. For vent/air pipe lengths less
than the maximum, the derate equals
the value above times vent length ÷ 100.

, this boiler is equipped
with a feature that saves energy by re-
ducing the boiler water temperature as
the heating load decreases. This feature
is equipped with an override which is
provided primarily to permit the use of
an external energy management system
that serves the same function.
