General Information The Lochinvar SSS series indirect water heater (FIG. 1-1) is designed to generate domestic hot water in conjunction with a hot water boiler using forced boiler water circulation. This indirect water heater consists of a 444 Stainless Steel tank in which a smooth 304 stainless steel coil is located.
Insulate piping between the boiler and the tank. Recommended Clearances The installation location must provide adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation of the water heater. A 12 inch Max. vertical clearance is recommended from the top of the water heater.
