RBI Futera XLF 8000 in practice
RBI's Futera XLF product page prints the 8000 row as 8000 MBH (2345 kW) input and 6824 MBH (2000 kW) boiler output, in a 68.375" × 55.333" × 68.9375" cabinet (1737 × 1406 × 1751 mm) with a 3176 lb (1442 kg) shipping weight.
The row lists Category I 14", Category II 14" and Category IV 14" flue options, 3" natural-gas and not printed LP connections (where printed) and a 6" water connection. RBI describes the Futera XLF as a 2,500–10,000 MBH copper 4-pass heat exchanger (160 psi) with HEATNET 3.0 controls, Turbo Pilot ignition, Modbus/LonWorks/BACnet integration and 5:1 turndown.
RBI rates the Futera XLF line at 85.9% AHRI Boiler Efficiency. Boilers.ca prints the rating-table row exactly as published; the I&O manual (XLF-IOM-17) and series brochure are linked from the official literature library. No official Canadian-sales statement was found, so canadianStatus stays unknown.
