Triangle Tube Prestige Series Boiler Review




The Triangle Tube Prestige Series Boilers are wall hung Modulating Condensing Boiler that fire on either natural gas or propane gas. Triangle Tube has been producing boilers, heat exchangers, and water heaters since 1946. Triangle Tube is headquartered in Blackwood, NJ where their 100,000 sq. ft. manufacturing and training facility is located. Triangle Tube was one of the pioneers of the use of stainless steel in boiler making and is part of the ACV Group of Belgium. Triangle Tube’s Condensing Boilers not only save you money on your energy costs with over 95% efficiency, but their NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) emission, is so low that it exceeds the year 2012 Standards. NOx is a gas caused by high temperature combustion and contributes to Photochemical Smog, Greenhouse Gases, and Ozone Depletion so selection of a Triangle Tube Prestige Series Boiler is a green choice that saves you money too.

The Triangle Tube Prestige Solo Series Boilers are available in 5 models which fire at rates of 60,000 – 399,000 Btu/Hr all of which have a 95% AFUE efficiency. The Prestige Solo’s are heating only and if you want the boiler to make domestic hot water a separate zone and Indirect Water Heater would be required. Triangle Tube Prestige Excellence Series Boiler is available in the model 110 size and has a built in indirect water heater tank for providing domestic hot water it also has a 95% AFUE efficiency. This high efficiency allows the entire Triangle Tube Prestige Series to carry the Energy Star seal and qualifies it for Appliance Stimulus Package Rebates of up to $200, Weatherization Assistance Program Grants of up to $6500 if you qualify, State and Utility Energy Saving Rebates in over ½ the states, and a Income Tax Credit up to 30%. With all these Free Money Programs available there is no time like now to upgrade your heating system to save money and protect the environment too.


At the heart of the Triangle Tube Prestige Series Boilers is a Modulating Burner. This burner can modulate the burner between 25% – 100% of the rated output for the boiler you have allowing the boiler to closely match your heating needs without short cycling which reduces efficiency. The Modulating Burner also mixes the fuel and air together in the variable speed blower before going to the burner for a cleaner burn and better efficiency. The burner heat is then sent to a Condensing Boiler which is different from the conventional boilers in that it has an additional section where hot flue gases are used to preheat the water returning to the boiler. The use of the flue gases in the Condensing Boiler releases the latent heat of steam in the hot flue gases to provide the preheating and actually cools the flue gases so much that the steam in the flue gases condenses to water hence the name Condensing Boiler. The Modulating Burner and Condensing Boiler combine to give you high efficiencies that were never before obtainable.

The Triangle Tube Prestige Series Boilers include the MCBA Control which is a microprocessor that provides a digital display module, ignition control, operating control, high temperature limit protection, modulating temperature control, low water protection, outdoor reset, domestic hot water priority, two pump controls (Heating and DHW), and boiler freeze protection. Also included in the Prestige Series is a stainless steel premix burner assembly, a 439 grade stainless steel heat exchanger for resistance to corrosion, factory testing before shipping, a Limited 10 Year Warranty, negative pressure regulated gas valve, 30 PSI pressure relief valve, automatic air vent, pressure gauge, 120V power switch, condensate drain assembly, 24 V terminal strip with removable jumpers for manual reset or automatic reset of external controls, and NTC temperature sensors on the boiler supply/return and flue. The 110 Model also has a flanged Grundfos 3-speed UP15-58 system circulator included. The Prestige Excellence comes with a 14 gallon Indirect Fired Water Heater built in that can produce 180 GPH of domestic hot water.

There is no time like right now to upgrade your gas fired boiler system to a new Triangle Tube Prestige Series Modulating Condensing Boiler to save money and protect the environment. The combination of Rebates, Grants and Income Tax Credits make the cost of upgrading truly affordable and create a faster return on your investment.
