Crown Cayman CWI241 in practice
The Cayman CWI241 is documented in the CWI specification table (Table 1) as a Category I, natural-draft cast-iron hot water boiler: 241 MBH input over 8 sections, 201 MBH heating capacity, a 175 MBH AHRI net rating (1.15 allowance) and 83.2% AFUE. Boiler water volume is 18.8 US gallons.
The model carries an integrated tankless domestic-water coil in the boiler body — rated 3.75 / 4.75 GPM (standard / optional high-capacity tankless heater) at the specification-table conditions (40°F inlet, 140°F outlet, 190°F boiler water) — and runs natural or LP gas. The tankless heater is included on CWI103–CWI276 and optional on CWI311–CWI380.
The Cayman is legacy — absent from the current Velocity Boiler Works menu — so productStatus is 'discontinued'. Boilers.ca documents this model at model level from the hosted CWI manual; no official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus stays 'unknown', and gas, combustion and venting work belongs with a licensed contractor.
Best suited to
- Owners documenting an installed Cayman against the CWI specification table
- Service planning for cast-iron natural-draft boilers with integrated tankless coils
- Legacy-replacement research in the 241-MBH-input class
