Beckett AquaSmart Service Options on Select Peerless Boilers

by HVAC Distributors

Peerless released Service Bulletin M-15-7 regarding Service Programs related to Fix-on-Fail issues with Beckett AquaSmart Boiler Controls on select Peerless units.

Beckett posted a service bulletin in February 2015 identifying manufacturing issues with the 7600P LWCO enabled sensors used in the AquaSmart Boiler Control.

Peerless’ Service Bulletin identifies that the AquaSmart controller issue may affect units in the following product lines: Series MI, MIHII, MI-85, DE, PSCII, GM, 63, 64, WB/WBV, WV-DV and EC water boilers.

To provide consumer relief in the event of a service issue, Peerless has an AquaSmart replacement program in place until April 1, 2016.

To participate in the program, contractors must:

  1. Replace a failed unit using one of the 2 options detailed below. This program does not apply to repairs made prior to failure.
  2. Complete the appropriate redemption form and return any alleged defective parts to Peerless.
    1. Redemption Form, Option 1
    2. Redemption Form, Option 2

Option 1: Replace the existing 2N1R sensor with an improved 7600P LWCO sensor constructed using a new process. The supplied sensor (PB Heat part # shown below) will contain a large letter H following the part number on the part number tag.
