About AERCO (Watts)

AERCO International, Inc. is a Watts Water Technologies brand that was founded in Blauvelt, New York. Its current product tree (aerco.com, as captured on the official pages for this research) lists condensing hydronic boilers — Benchmark, Modulex EXT, AM Series boilers and the MFC multi-fuel condensing boiler — plus electric equipment (Benchmark-E and Sequoia electrode boilers), water heaters (including the Innovation commercial tankless line) and accessories.

The documented lines on Boilers.ca are the Benchmark (nine BMK condensing firetube sizes, 750–6000 MBH), the AM Series (399–1000 MBH modular 'pre-packaged boiler plant' enclosures), the Modulex EXT (eight MLX EXT multi-module outdoor-ready condensing sizes, 450–3000 MBH), the Innovation commercial tankless water heater (four INN sizes, 625–1350 MBH, documented as DHW-only) and the legacy KC1000 condensing boiler (1 million BTU/hr class). Benchmark-E and Sequoia are electric, so they are mentioned here for context and are not gas boiler hubs.

AERCO's HTML pages returned Cloudflare 403 responses to this research network on 2026-09-09, but the official PDF document system (aerco.com/dfsmedia) responded normally: model specs come from the live official technical data sheets and manuals. Product-page wording for the Benchmark, Modulex EXT, AM Series and KC lines comes from official Wayback captures of aerco.com. No official per-product Canadian availability statement was found, so canadianStatus is recorded as unknown; AERCO's site offers sales-representative and service-technician locators. Boilers.ca does not claim Canadian stock or availability for AERCO.
