Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100157702 Outdoor Air Reset Control
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100157702 Outdoor Air Reset Control is a precision boiler control designed to maximize heating system efficiency by automatically adjusting boiler supply water temperature in response to changing outdoor air conditions. By modulating water temperature based on real-time outdoor readings, this control reduces unnecessary fuel consumption, extends equipment life, and delivers consistent comfort throughout the heating season.
How Outdoor Air Reset Works
Outdoor air reset (OAR) control is a proven strategy in hydronic heating systems. As outdoor temperatures rise, the demand for heat decreases — and the control responds by lowering the boiler’s supply water temperature accordingly. This prevents the boiler from operating at unnecessarily high temperatures during mild weather, resulting in meaningful energy savings and reduced thermal stress on system components.
