Why Outdoor Reset Sensing Matters
Outdoor reset control is one of the most effective strategies for improving hydronic heating efficiency. By measuring the outdoor air temperature, the boiler control can modulate supply water temperature in real time — delivering only as much heat as the building demands. The Weil McLain 381-356-586 sensor is the factory-specified component to make this possible, ensuring accurate signal input and reliable system communication.
Application
- Weil McLain residential and light commercial boiler systems with outdoor reset capability
- Replacement for worn, damaged, or failed outdoor air sensors
- New installations requiring outdoor temperature sensing for boiler controls
