The Independence is a residential, gas-fired boiler for steam or hot water systems. It is available for either natural or LP gas and has AFUE ratings of up to 83%. Its large water volume and durable cast iron sections make it an ideal replacement for even the most challenging steam or water heating system.
Standard equipment on the Independence includes cast iron push nipples that provide a permanent, watertight seal between sections, Honeywell operating controls, vent damper and a rugged steel base assembly. A deluxe, insulated, powder-coated steel jacket completely encloses gas valves and burners, and reduces boiler heat loss.
The exclusive Independence PV models have been specifically configured to operate as direct vented products for installation in homes with a damaged or irreparable chimney.
This is Harker’s expert opinion on the product as a whole. Intangibles such as durability, ease of repair/install, and value are taken into consideration. We want to make it clear that we do not offer any bad products. Not every product can be used in every situation, so sometimes a 3-star product will be a better fit than a 5-star. All star ratings are pure opinion.
