The Exclusive Bryan
“Flexible Water Tube” Design
The “Flexible Water Tube” design of the
Bryan Boiler provides for extremely fast,
natural internal circulation, resulting in
maximum heat transfer and operating
efficiency. Dependency on external
pumps is eliminated. The unique flexible
bent tube design prevents all possible
damage from thermal shock and related
problems. Bryan Flexible Tubes are
easily removable and replaceable,
allowing for quick and simple boiler
maintenance. Boiler room dimensions
are minimized, as little space is required
for tube withdrawal — a real savings.
Don’t be misled by claims of “or-equal”
or “similar design.” Only Bryan Boilers
feature the unique, original “Flexible
Water Tube” design.

CLM-120-WT-FDG-844-AV-CM-IN
(960 GPH w/844 gallon storage)
The Bryan “Indirect” water heater
utilizes the “Flexible Water Tube”
boiler design along with copper and
brass heat exchangers installed to
generate hot water for commercial
service and industrial hot water
applications, as well as swimming
pool heating. The indirect feature,
heating water with water, effectively
minimizes scaling and corrosion
that normally is experienced
with the short-lived “direct
fired” water heater.
Units are available for
“tankless” or instanta-
neous applications, as
well as for “storage”
tank systems such
as the Bryan
“Water-PakTM.”
Indirect
Swimming Pool Heaters
Atmospheric gas and forced draft
(all fuels) and electric. The prestigious
“Indirect.” The Bryan lndirect principle
provides for a long-lived and trouble-free
heater, to give many years of reliable
and efficient operation. Fifty years of
experience in heating swimming pools.
Standard sizes range from 350 MBH
through 8,000 MBH.
