Residential Hot Water Boiler Control - The average residential/light commercial boiler typically uses different controls to sequence the boiler. Boiler control in commercial and industrial applications can be very complex and can have added layers of controls outside of the local boiler controls that come from the manufacturer.
There are also differences in the controls between steam and hot water boilers. Breaking all this down into sections we’ll be as concise and detailed as possible while using brevity to describe residential/light commercial boiler control and cover commercial/industrial boiler control in another article. Some of this information will overlap but rest assured we’ll be as detailed as possible.
HVAC Tip - You can add energy savings by placing a blanket wrap insulation around your water heaters. Additionally, for electric water heaters, you can have a timer added to the power circuit to turn the water heater off in times when there is no usage. For example: Set the timer to turn the water heater off from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. Most timers can be customized and set for different times so that the water heater is turned off for most of the day and night. This, along with the insulation (which will keep the water hotter longer), can save in energy usage and your energy costs.
