FLRH-85 PRO Model
$7397 (the lowest full featured priced boiler in the industry)
All Hyprotherm Models (except for our lowest priced boiler; the Econo-85) include one pump installed with flanges. This boiler also includes a second set of ports, a built-in heat exchanger to heat your domestic hot water, a pull out ash tray, a reliable digital Ranco aquastat plus it is pre-wired and includes a water level gauge and an analog thermometer as well. They also have a super-thick, heavy-duty 5/8” stove poker, a chimney cap and dual motion light.
This model includes a standard 3/8 inch thick firebox AND the water jacket bottom is also 3/8 inch thick, the most vulnerable part of the furnace! The super thick 1/2 inch option gives you the 1/2 inch water jacket bottom as well.
In the U.S., our furnaces are for Commercial applications only.
Our traditional outdoor furnaces generate economical,
natural and safe heat.
They are compatible with most existing and new heat systems,
including hot water, forced air, hydronic heat, radiant floors and baseboard heat and more.

commercial and other spaces, plus domestic hot water systems,
pools and hot tubs.

2: 430-ton Press Brake
We are the only manufacturer that uses a press brake to form a firebox and air jacket; both from 1 piece of metal.
Most everyone else uses 6 flat slabs of steel, with no inherent strength and that requires 12 welds because welds are the weak spots.
This new firebox and air jacket are formed using a 430-ton Press Brake,
3: Not only is the firebox thicker; the water jacket bottom is THE SAME THICKNESS as the firebox because it is the most vulnerable part); 3/8" standard and the 1/2" THICK firebox option gives you a HALF INCH THICK water jacket bottom as well!
NO ONE ELSE DOES THAT - ANYWHERE!! The cost for this is more (CALL ME FOR PRICE, however you may want to consider that upgrading the thickness of the water jacket may be a better option for a LOT LESS MONEY, where we make your water jacket 1/3 thicker, upgrading it to 1/4" thick, which is what I did on my personal boiler.
4: It is the best boiler because it has ALL Off-the-Shelf PARTS; nothing proprietary that you have to get from us.
5: It is the best boiler because it has No electronics; NO circuit boards, NO computerized parts (like on the Wood Master and Central Boiler and many others)!
6: Do you really need a Smartphone or Laptop to monitor your outdoor boiler?
I say that you should not have one if you cannot go outside and open the rear door and look at the thermometer and glance at the water gauge to see what is going on!
It is just something else to go wrong with a lot of extra expense that seems to be never covered under warranty. They always say that a power surge took out the circuit board and you get stuck with a $300.00 bill and the technicians cost to install it.
Not so with HyproTherm. Every part on our boiler is available almost anywhere and everywhere; on eBay, at Grainger, your local plumbing supply; even in Canada!
Cast Iron Grates
7: Cast iron grates are a stronger option, resistant to bowing and deformation like you may get with steel grates. We purchase these from a foundry that labels them as coal grates, and they do well. Shaker grates, also cast iron are available as an option, mostly for those folks burning a lot of coal, where the coal is inclined to have clinkers.
Our smallest models have one grate, the next two sizes up have two grates and our largest models typically have three grates.
6: Pull-out Ash Tray
Most manufacturers make you open up the firebox door to clean out the ashes with a shovel. You will quickly find out that you are not going to get anywhere near the firebox because it will be 800 F or more!
They want you to open the firebox door and you will need to leave it open to let the heat out and I call that wasting heat. You will need to kill the fire to be able to shovel out the ashes and then you have to start a fire again, in the dead of winter.
With our furnaces you do it the easy way. Even with a fire raging, you can pull out the ash tray, dump the ashes into a fire proof container and slide the tray back in without missing a lick. Two handles on the ash tray make it easy. Every ash tray is the same length as the firebox.
9: It is the best boiler because it has one standard pump installed WITH flanges; many others don't give you any pump PLUS we give you an extra set of ports for another pump to heat another building. See next photo. below.
10: They all come pre-wired with a reliable RANCO aquastat as shown.
All wired up, protected behind full-sized rear door.
11: A built-in copper hot water coil, that sits in the big tank of water to heat your domestic hot water; saving you $35-$65 a month in energy costs plus $300 in installation costs of parts that are needed with other manufacturers' boilers.
Only 1/4" thick but up to R-12 value
Insulation fight heat loss 3 ways!
