Induced Draft
BTN Gas Models
80% thermal efficiency—
Low NOx
The Master-Fit
®
Plus BTN series meets Southern California Energy
Commission (CEC) and Texas low NOx requirements of less than
40 ng/J and features an induced-draft design. This provides more
efficient control of heat through the flue collector. Like all Master-Fit
water heaters, the BTN series provides outstanding performance and
maximum installation flexibility for both new construction and
replacement applications. Each unit is designed to be as much as a
foot shorter than the models they usually replace, and multiple
options for placement of water connections and low installation
clearances are additional installer-friendly features.
The Eliminator
™
Self-Cleaning System
As deposits of lime and other sediments accumulate inside the tank,
they form a barrier between the burner and the water, concentrating
heat around the critical weld areas. The result is reduced energy
efficiency, higher operating costs, and a greater risk of premature
tank leaks.
The Eliminator
™
directs incoming cold water under pressure
to sweep the bottom of the tank to keep sediment
moving so it doesn’t accumulate. Reduced sediment
build-up helps maintain rated thermal efficiency and
reduce water heating costs. The self-cleaning
system also helps prolong tank life to ensure year
after year of reliable service.
