FAQ: Why Does My Business Need a Low NOx Boiler?

Today's businesses, regardless of industry, can always do more to improve their sustainability and limit the negative impact their actions have on the environment. There are a number of ways to do this, but one of the best is to use a boiler that’s designed to limit the emissions of NOx — one of the most harmful greenhouse gases humans emit into the atmosphere. Aside from being good for the environment, a low NOx boiler can also be good for business.

Miura’s LX series of boilers come with a NOx emissions rating as low as 9 ppm depending on the specific model. Emissions this low can keep your business in line with any current or proposed regulations that relate to NOx emissions. Keeping up with these restrictions can help your business avoid fines and other types of penalties that may come with not complying with these regulations.

The same LX series boilers that keep NOx emissions low can also help your business in other ways. These boilers are much smaller than older conventional boilers, helping you save a great deal of space in your boiler room or steam plant without sacrificing efficiency. The smaller boilers can allow your business to have multiple boilers, which can be quite helpful if your steam needs fluctuate during different parts of the year or even during different periods of the day.

In addition to their low NOx emissions, one of the most enticing features of Miura’s LX boilers is how quickly they can start producing steam from an off position. Traditional boilers can take over an hour for a cold start-up, and the only way to avoid this is to leave them running idle, wasting both fuel and money in the process. But with the flip of a switch, Miura’s boilers can start producing steam within five minutes due to their design. This feature not only saves your business time, but it can also reduce fuel costs significantly, which can save you money in the long run.

While lower emissions of NOx is an important benefit during a time when all businesses should be making an effort to be more environmentally-conscious, lower emissions of NOx is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Miura’s LX series of boilers. With everything else they have to offer, your business can stand to benefit in a multitude of ways from having a low NOx boiler.
