The gas-fired Futera Fusion now brings the field-proven performance of Futera III commercial boilers and water heaters to the ultimate levels of efficiency and reliability. Unlike most condensing products available today that produce the highest efficiencies at the lowest inputs, the Fusion steps it up a notch by attaining efficiencies as high as 99% at full input. The full modulation firing system continuously varies the energy input to precisely match heating load without overfiring or wasting fuel.
The Fusion’s heat exchanger was designed using the most efficient and dependable heat transfer materials available today. The low-mass, gasketless primary heat exchanger has solid cast iron headers and finned copper (or optional cupronickel) tubing for superior heat transfer, resistance to scaling and protection against thermal shock.
The benefits don’t stop there. The condensing secondary heat exchanger is constructed from solid stainless steel and is designed to operate at the boiler's full flow rate. The unit operates in full condensing mode at all times, while a state-of-the-art temperature mixing system protects the boiler's primary heat exchanger. In addition, this design also offers a larger heat transfer surface area – more so than any competitive product currently available. Simply put, there is no better way to protect your investment.

Heat Exchanger
Advanced Technology
The Fusion’s heat exchanger was designed using the most efficient and dependable heat transfer materials available today. The low-mass, gasket-less primary heat exchanger has solid cast iron (boiler) or bronze (water heater) and finned copper or cupronickel tubing for superior heat transfer, resistance to scaling, and protection against thermal shock.
The condensing secondary heat exchanger is solid stainless steel and designed to operate at the boiler’s full flow rate. It operates in full condensing mode at all times, while a state of the art temperature mixing system protects the boiler’s primary heat exchanger. Each Fusion carries a full non-prorated 20 year warranty against damage from condensate or thermal shock. There’s simply no better way to protect an owner’s investment. This design also offers a larger heat transfer surface area than any competitive product currently available. This translates into the highest available efficiencies – at full operating input! We challenge you to look closely at competing products’ efficiency data. No other water heater or boiler on the market has full input efficiencies as high as the Fusion’s.
Gas Train
The Turbo Pilot®
Reliability at its best the Futera Series independent Turbo Pilot system with UV detection is far more durable and reliable than any competitive ignition system available today. At 8,000 BTU’s the Turbo Pilot provides a sure-fire source for burner ignition while providing continuous performance feedback through the HEATNET control platform.
Symmetric Air/Fuel Coupling
RBI’s state-of-the-art air/fuel coupling combustion control system is instantly responsive and completely adaptable. This unique boiler combustion control system is designed to keep the Fusion running safe, clean and efficient. The system reacts to changes in air and instantly compensates fuel supply by adjusting input to maintain a constant air/fuel mixture across the modulation range. The unique design of the air/fuel mixing system ensures a complete and consistent air/ fuel mixture to the burner which increase combustion efficiency and repeatability all while maintaining low emissions.
