LAARS-STOR2
™
RESIDENTIAL ENERGY SAVER
DOUBLE-WALL INDIRECT WATER HEATER
The Laars-Stor2
™
features a patented double-wall carbon steel heat exchanger coil
coated with a glass-lining for corrosion resistance and long life. The Laars-Stor2
™
supplies
a first hour rating of 120 to 158 gallons per hour.
• Heat Exchanger—Double wall 1
1
⁄2" O.D. glass
coated steel coil. Because the double wall coil
has a positive leak path, the hydronic fluid will
stay separate from the potable water.
• Low Heat Exchanger Head Loss—Up to 10
GPM flow, with less than 5 ft. of head loss.
Greatly reduces the required pump size for heat
exchange.
• Factory Installed Sediment Reduction
System—Cold water inlet sediment reducing
device. Helps prevent sediment build-up in tank.
Increases first hour delivery of hot water while
minimizing temperature build-up at top of tank.
• Glass Lined Tank—Laars Heating Systems
water heater tanks are
protected from the corrosive
effects of hot water by an
exclusive ceramic porcelain-
like coating.
• Fully Automatic Controls—
Fast acting surface–mount
thermostat for automatic
temperature control.
• Water Connections—
3
⁄4" NPT factory installed
true dielectric fittings. Extends water heater life
and eases installation.
• 2" Non-CFC Foam Insulation—Covers the sides
and top of tank to save energy by retarding
loss of heat. Also increases jacket rigidity.
• Two Protective Aluminum Rods—Provides
added protection against corrosion for long
trouble-free service.
• Supply and Return Connections—The
3
⁄4" NPT
female connections are located on the front for
both the boiler supply and boiler return.
• Stand-by Heat Loss—Less than
1
⁄2°F per hour
(ASHRAE 90.1b current standard).
• Brass Drain Valve.
• T&P Relief Valve Included—
All models feature opening on
side of tank.
• Steel Tank—Heavy gauge steel
automatically formed, rolled
and welded to assure a
continuous seam for glass
lining.

General: All units are certified at 300 PSI test pressure (2068 kPa) and 150 PSI working pressure (1034 kPa). All potable water and heat exchanger connections are
3
⁄4" NPT (19mm) on
8" (203mm) centers.
Dimensions and specifications subject to change without notice in accordance with our policy of continuous product improvement.
Suitable for Water (Potable) Heating and Space Heating
Toxic chemicals, such as those used for boiler treatment, shall NEVER be introduced into the potable water side. The potable side of this unit may NEVER be connected to any existing heating
system or component(s) previously used with a non-potable water heating appliance. The heat exchanger side of the unit may be used in space heating applications.
Notes: These certified ratings were obtained with a heat
source output rate and flow rate as specified and a 180°F
boiler water supply temperature. Other results will be
obtained under different conditions.
Meets or exceeds the insulating standards established under ASHRAE Standard 90.1b (current edition).
Notes: Based on 200°F boiler water temperature and
50°F potable water inlet temperature.
