This document provides data to calculate the efficiency of three different boiler options: a Cleaver-Brooks boiler and two alternative boilers. It gives the boiler specifications, fuel type and costs, estimated operating hours, and calculated annual fuel costs and payback periods for each boiler. The Cleaver-Brooks boiler has a higher guaranteed fuel-to-steam efficiency of 85.5% compared to 82% for the alternatives. Based on the estimated annual fuel savings, the Cleaver-Brooks boiler would pay back its higher initial cost within 9 months, while alternative 1 would take over 1 year and alternative 2 would take over 1.5 years.
