Weil McLain boilers are among the most popular brands in the industry. The company is a division of Marley-Wylain, and Weil-McLain boilers are built in the United States.

These hydronic boilers are available in a wide assortment of styles and materials to fit your installation and use requirements. Gas and oil boilers are manufactured to use water and/or steam in delivering heat.

Model Analysis

Notes:

• MBH = 1,000 BTU, so a 220MBH boiler is a unit with 220,000 BTU input (Output = Input x % efficiency)
• Efficiency ranges reflect changes in efficiency; larger units are generally less efficient
• The Weil-McLain EG Series boiler heats via water or steam
• The WGTO Series differs from the WGO in that it includes a tankless water heater for domestic hot water production

Weil McLain Boilers Features Analysis

Here are design features unique to Weil-McLain boilers:

• Many Weil-McLain boilers are manufactured with elastomeric seals over a captured port for proper positioning. This exclusive combination of elastomer durability and the precise positioning reduces leaks while increasing boiler reliability over its lifetime. Elastomeric seals are used in WGO, WGTO, SGO and Ultra Oil boilers.
• The Weil McLain WM97+ CT boiler has a unique condensing stainless steel fire tube heat exchanger design. Condensing technology allows the boiler to capture heat normally lost through the water vapor that is a byproduct of combustion. While condensing technology isn’t unique, the WM97+ design allows this unit to recover an impressive amount of heat to produce a boiler that qualifies for the Energy Star rating.
• Weil McLain GV90+ gas boiler is designed with a 7-pass heat exchanger that maximizes heat transfer and allows the boiler to achieve 91% AFUE efficiency. The design is patented and available only on Weil-McLain GV90+ and other boiler models.

How Weil McLain Boilers Compare to Other Brands 

This brand makes a very balanced lineup of gas condensing, gas and oiler boilers that is larger than even Peerless’. Weil McLain has made an investment in wall-mounted boilers that are compact in design. There are four available: Evergreen, AquaBalance, WM97+ and ECO. All are extremely efficient too.

Another investment Weil-McLain has made is in innovation, especially design that extends the life of the boiler. This commitment is seen in the elastomeric seals, fire tube heat exchanger and 7-pass exchanger discussed below. As a result of the innovation and quality in Weil McLain boilers, prices are in the top third of brands. In cases like the Evergreen boilers, prices are among the highest of any residential model.

Warranties are average for the industry for most models. Several have lifetime limited heat exchanger warranties covering material and manufacturing defects. The AquaBalance heat exchanger warranty is only 10 years, shorter than most and the reason that some homeowners do not believe that paying more for a condensing boiler is worth it. They simply are not as durable as non-condensing gas and oil boilers.
