Racine, Wisconsin — Modine Manufacturing Company has announced the release of its Lodronic low-temperature hot water heater, designed to provide maximum efficiency in a compact, lightweight and energy-saving format.
The UL 1995 certified Lodronic is 15% lighter, has a 30% smaller footprint, uses 50% less electricity and offers quieter operation than comparable heaters, according to a press release.
“With Lodronic, we’re continuing to offer the highest-quality HVAC solutions to the users who rely on Modine technology,” said Jamie Tuinstra, product manager at Modine. “Our engineers, contractors and end users can downsize and replace the typical oversized hydronic unit heater with the first low-temperature hot water heater in the U.S. designed specifically for use with high-efficiency boilers.”
The Lodronic unit is available in six sizes and is ideal for use in warehouses, industrial buildings, mechanical rooms, manufacturing plants, entryways and greenhouses, according to Modine. Features of the new Lodronic unit include:
- High-temperature output
- High-efficiency 4-row coil with low water pressure drop
- Smaller fan and motor for a lower system amp draw
- Designed for lower entering hot water temperatures
“Our mission is to meet and exceed the high expectations of our engineers and contractors,” Tuinstra said. “The Lodronic offers the efficient and convenient HVAC technology that they’re looking for, in a lightweight package that still provides enough energy to supply major commercial enterprises.”
