Maintaining the health of water-based fluids circulating within high and low temperature hydronic systems is paramount to protecting components while maximizing efficiency. Make a smart choice by selecting The Gold Standard Kit™ for clean hydronic systems to ensure maximum protection and efficiency. Kitted for savings, the Gold Standard includes two product favorites that effectively eliminate three problems:
The Caleffi DISCAL® high efficiency air separator is dedicated to removing the system culprit:
- Excessive oxygen resulting in the formation of corrosion. The DIRTMAG® PRO dirt separator with magnetic technology and particle mesh captures troublesome
- Magnetic debris
- Non-magnetic debris
DISCAL maintains dissolved oxygen concentration below levels that can cause
magnetic materials to corrode. The specially engineered coalescing mesh forces microbubble gasses to be collected and automatically vented from the system. Separating dissolved oxygen minimizes oxidation, thus protecting the system from corrosion and sediment formation (a.k.a. “boiler sludge”).
DIRTMAG PRO captures magnetic and non-magnetic debris, the bane of heat
exchangers, circulators and valves. Debris that isn’t the result of oxidation, known as non-ferrous debris, must also be removed. Common examples include copper shavings, pipe tape and solder. Purging the captured magnetic and non-magnetic debris is quick, clean and does not require system shutdown with DIRTMAG PRO.
Rest assured. The Gold Standard Kit removes excessive oxygen and rids the system of both magnetic and non-magnetic debris. Separation with NO Compromise.

Laars® Heating Systems, a leading U.S. designer and manufacturer of boilers, water heaters, and pool heaters used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications, announces the release of the new FT Series light commercial boilers available in 301 and 399 MBH sizes.
Laars® Heating Systems, a leading U.S. designer and manufacturer of boilers, water heaters, and pool heaters used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications, announces the release of the new FT Series light commercial boilers available in 301 and 399 MBH sizes.
These robust boilers have a stainless steel firetube heat exchanger, operate with up to 10:1 turndown, can be used with either natural gas or propane fuel, and run at an ultra-high 95%+ thermal efficiency.
“These versatile additions to the Laars® FT Series product line meet or exceed the high standards our customers have for heating equipment,” said Chuck O’Donnell, director of marketing for Laars® Heating Systems. “The FT Series 301 and 399 MBH units provide optimal performance and ultra-high efficiency while also responding to a wide range of operational demands. We’re always looking for ways to maximize value for our customers and end users by providing top-performing heating equipment that’s built to last.”
Each FT Series unit is equipped with onboard high- and low-temperature zone control, DHW Smart PriorityTM functionality that allows simultaneous space and domestic water heating, BMS compatibility, and can cascade up to four units. Additionally, a sensor actively monitors incoming air for cross-contamination from exhaust flue gases. This unique feature issues an alert when cross-contamination is present, indicating that the vent system should be evaluated to help keep the boiler running trouble-free.
The FT Series 301 and 399 MBH units can be wall-hung or floor-mounted with optional stand package. Top and bottom gas and water connections and venting up to 150 equivalent feet offer increased installation flexibility.
