Hydroflex60 by Harmon- -basement 60K BTU

[conservationseeker]

anyone here of the new Hydroflex60 by Harmon?

Its supposedly a stand alone wood pellet boiler that hooks up to your existing system. all loading is done in basement, BTU up to 60K and hopper capacity is 160lbs.

Any insight on this? Anyone here about it? Anyone know who's selling??

Brand new - introduced at the trade show (stove/fireplace) this year.
It's hard to imagine how Harman will supply these in quantity this year because they are almost a year behind on other models...but anything is possible.

Please remember this is input BTUs.

What that means is if you have a unit that is "rated" at 60,000 input BTUs it will need to burn almost 7 1/4 lbs of pellets per hour based on pellets having a 8,300 BTUs per pound rating. That is not giving into consideration what is lost out the vent pipe. I do not think there is a pellet stove claiming output BTUs.
