System 2000 EK2 Frontier 200,000 BTU/hr in practice
The EK2 Frontier 200,000 BTU/hr row is a gas-fired System 2000 configuration built on the EK2 energy converter. The EK1/EK2 gas data sheet prints its input at 200,000 BTU/hr with 168,000 BTU/hr gross output at 84% AFUE on natural gas, or 172,000 BTU/hr at 87% AFUE on propane.
The EK2 converter holds 4 gallons of water and weighs 350 lb; the data sheet describes a 10-foot forced counter-flow flue passage, a 300°F net stack temperature, 3/16-inch pressure-vessel steel throughout, ASME code construction with National Board registration, all welded and threaded connections, a high-temperature combustion chamber, a swing-down front cover and built-in dynamic air elimination. System 2000 combines heat and hot water through the Energy Manager control and a storage tank, with chimney venting standard and a power-vent chimneyless option.
Boilers.ca documents this printed rating row at model level from the data sheet and links the published warranty and brochure. Gas, venting and electrical work belongs with a licensed contractor. No official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus stays 'unknown'.
Best suited to
- 200,000 BTU/hr residential heating loads
- Homes wanting heat and hot water from one integrated system
- Larger homes needing the EK2's 4-gallon converter

Specifications
Published specifications
Values as published by Energy Kinetics. Units are shown with every value; notes flag conflicting sources or missing figures.
| Specification | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Input | ||
| Input | 200,000 BTU/hr | Input per the EK1/EK2 gas product data sheet; the table prints a single fixed input per row with natural-gas and propane columns. |
| Output | ||
| Gross output (natural gas) | 168,000 BTU/hr | Gross output per the data sheet natural-gas column; the propane column prints 172,000 BTU/hr for the same row. |
| Efficiency | ||
| Efficiency (AFUE, natural gas) | 84 % | AFUE per the data sheet natural-gas column; the propane column prints 87% for the same row. |
| Efficiency (AFUE, propane) | 87 % | AFUE per the data sheet propane column for the same input row. |
| Domestic hot water | ||
| Domestic hot water | Integrated system: heat plus domestic hot water from a storage tank using the Energy Manager control | System 2000 is an integrated heat-and-hot-water system per the product page; hot-water output depends on the tank and plate heat exchanger selected with the system, so no single printed DHW rate applies to the converter alone. |
| Venting and air | ||
| Venting | Chimney venting standard; power-vent chimneyless option available | The data sheet describes a 10-foot forced counter-flow flue passage and a 300°F net stack temperature, letting the system vent directly through the wall at ground level when power vented. |
| Physical and connections | ||
| Water content | 4 gal | Water content per the EK1/EK2 gas data sheet feature table (EK1 2½ gal., EK2 4 gal.). |
| Energy converter weight | 350 lb | Energy converter weight per the EK1/EK2 gas data sheet (EK1 270 lb, EK2 350 lb); jacket/insulation adds 90 lb (EK1) or 110 lb (EK2) per the feature table. |
| Operating limits and other | ||
| Construction | 3/16" pressure vessel steel throughout; ASME code construction, National Board registered | All welded and threaded connections, wet-base design, high-temperature combustion chamber and built-in dynamic air elimination per the data sheet feature table. |
| Fuel | Natural gas or propane | The data sheet prints natural-gas and propane columns for every input row. |
| Control | Energy Manager control (5-year warranty, lifetime protection plan) | The Energy Manager maximizes heating efficiency and integrates with the low-mass boiler; warranty per the EK1/EK2 warranty document. |

Frequently asked questions
What are the EK2 Frontier 200,000 BTU/hr ratings?
200,000 BTU/hr input with 168,000 BTU/hr gross output at 84% AFUE on natural gas, or 172,000 BTU/hr at 87% on propane per the EK1/EK2 gas data sheet.
Does System 2000 make domestic hot water?
Yes — System 2000 is an integrated heat-and-hot-water system: the Energy Manager control and plate heat exchanger charge a storage tank. The converter rating row does not print a standalone DHW rate because output depends on the tank selected.
