The Bali 3 (BWF) is Crown's current cast-iron, induced-draft gas hot water boiler: six natural-gas and six propane models (12 total) from 63 to 245 MBH input at up to 85% AFUE, with an integrated boiler control with integral LWCO and an optional direct-vent kit.
Series facts
85.0% AFUE printed on eleven of the twelve models; the largest NG (BWF245CN) and LP (BWF220CL) sizes print 84.0% AFUE.
The Bali 3 is the current Crown (Velocity Boiler Works) induced-draft cast-iron gas boiler, listed on the 2026 residential gas menu as 'Bali 3 (BWFC)'. The product page describes a gas-fired hot water boiler that 'has many of the same features of the previous Bali 2 (BWF)', offered in six sizes in natural or LP gas (NG 70–245 MBH input, LP 63–220 MBH input), up to 85% AFUE, with specific sea-level and high-altitude models, an integrated boiler control with integral LWCO, and an optional direct vent kit that allows direct connection of outside combustion air.
One change is flagged on the page: standard piping is now left side only and cannot be field converted to right-side piping (a rolling change noted by the manufacturer). The BWF space-heating ratings table prints twelve models — BWF070CN, BWF105CN, BWF140CN, BWF175CN, BWF210CN, BWF245CN and BWF063CL, BWF094CL, BWF126CL, BWF157CL, BWF189CL, BWF220CL — with inputs of 63 to 245 MBH, heating capacities of 54–208 MBH and net AHRI water ratings of 47–181 MBH (1.15 allowance) at 85.0% AFUE (84.0% on the two largest).
The literature sheet (PN 980632, 2/26) adds per-model sections (3–8), width (12-3/4"–27-3/4"), gas connection (1/2" NPT, 3/4" NPT on the 210/220/245-class sizes), vent size (3", 4" on the largest), water content (2–7 gallons), approximate shipping weight (260–525 lb) and the optional direct-vent kit PN (110019-03 through -08). Boilers.ca documents all twelve models at model level. No official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus stays 'unknown'; installation, gas and venting work belongs with a licensed contractor.

Services for Crown Boiler Co. boilers
No official Canadian-sales statement was found on the official pages checked on September 9, 2026, so canadianStatus is recorded as 'unknown'. Confirm supply through a licensed distributor.
No — it is a cast-iron, induced-draft (fan-assisted) boiler rated up to 85% AFUE that vents through a chimney, or direct-vent with the optional direct vent kit; it is not a condensing design.
Each of the six physical sizes is printed twice in the ratings table — once for natural gas (BWF…CN models, 70–245 MBH) and once for propane (BWF…CL models, 63–220.5 MBH).
