Two 3,348 MBTU Saskatoon Boilers were replaced with a Viessman Hybrid hot water heating system configuration. One Vitocrossal CT3-57 condensing boiler (2,160 MBTU) and one Vitorond VD2-560 near condensing boiler (2,275 MBTU), complete with a low loss header, were installed.
A comparison to the average costs and consumptions for the 2007-2008 and the 2008-2009 heating seasons indicate that savings are over $12,000 for the 2009-2010 heating season.
A distinct reduction in the consumption per HDD is evident. In fact, in the first six months that the new boilers were operating, there was a 27.6% reduction in natural gas consumption. Full federal and provincial incentives were obtained.
