The ninth edition of ANSI/CAN/UL 795, the Standard for Commercial-Industrial Gas-Fired Package Boilers (2024), set a new industry benchmark for manufacturers, importers, traders and retailers of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVACR) systems and products. The updated Standard provides a certification path for systems using up to 25% of hydrogen blended with natural gas, marking a significant step toward sustainability in the boiler industry. Certification in accordance with the requirements of the ninth edition of UL 795 can support manufacturers’ efforts to adapt their systems to the evolving energy landscape.
Key features of UL 795
The ninth edition of UL 795 expands the scope of the Standard over previous editions by providing compatibility with various fuel types, including:
- Gas-fired package boilers
- High-pressure steam and high-temperature water, gas-fired boiler assemblies for the following fuel gases: natural gas, hydrogen-natural gas blends,* LP-gas, LP-gas/air blends, and manufactured gas
- Furnaces
- Air heaters (U.S. only)
Certification under UL 795 is crucial for manufacturers seeking to embrace cleaner energy sources while maintaining compliance with safety regulations.
The binational Standard aligns with requirements of both the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), helping boilers and other HVAC/R products certified to UL 795 meet the latest safety and performance requirements in both countries.
