Ideal Commodore Floor CB1250F in practice
The CB1250F opens the Commodore Floor line at 1,200 MBH maximum input with a 156 MBH minimum and an 8:1 turndown. Output is 1,200 MBH with a 1,043 MBH net AHRI rating, and the printed efficiency rows are 97.0% thermal and 96.6% combustion. The nameplate size class reads 1250, but the published maximum input row is 1,200 MBH — Boilers.ca keeps the printed row.
The floor-standing chassis measures 55 x 47 x 34 inches and weighs 992 lb, with 11.0 gallons rated water volume. Supply and return connections are 2-1/2-inch Victaulic, gas is 2-inch NPT and vent/air connections are 8-inch/8-inch, with a published vent length of 150 feet. Modbus is standard, BACnet is optional, and the boiler is field-convertible between natural gas and propane.
Cascade capacity reaches 16 boilers. The model is documented by the Commodore Floor installation and service manual, user manual and the CB 1250–2000 submittal sheet. No explicit Canadian sales statement was found on the official pages checked on 2026-09-09; the Exalt and Gallant submittals list ANSI Z21.13 and CSA 4.9 compliance, so Boilers.ca records canadianStatus as unknown.
Best suited to
- Commercial plants starting around 1,200 MBH
- Buildings with mechanical-room floor space and 2-1/2-inch Victaulic piping
- Plants planning cascades up to 16 Commodore Floor boilers
