Heating the Home
The NCB boiler saves energy and provides the most comfortable heating available. It heats the
home by burning seasoned hardcoal to heat a firebox surrounded by a steel tank filled with water.
The boiler is non-pressurized with an atmospheric vent and includes an easy-to-read water jacket
float indicator. The heated water must be circulated through insulated underground pex pipes to a
heat exchanger that must be installed in the existing furnace system.
If you have a forced-air system, a water-to-air heat coil must be installed in the ductwork. When air
travels through, heat is extracted and hot air is emitted out of the registers.
A water-to-water plate heat exchanger must be used if you have a hydronic radiant heating system.
When connecting to an in-floor heating system in concrete, a mixing valve is also required to keep
temperatures below 110F or damage to the concrete will occur over time from too much heat
expansion.
