Description
BJHV-55 Vertical 11 Gauge Steel Condensate Return System for 25–30 Boiler HP
The BJHV-55 vertical 11 gauge steel condensate return system is built for boiler applications that need a durable boiler feed package with added pump capacity in a vertical layout. This unit includes an 18" diameter x 36" high 11 gauge steel vertical receiver tank, mounted stand, float assembly, gauge glass, and a factory-plumbed Burks CS-series pump package.
Designed for boilers from 25 to 30 HP, this ready-to-install system provides more pump capacity than the BJHV-5 while using the same 18" x 36" vertical receiver footprint. The heavy-duty steel tank provides strength and longevity, while the mounted pump and pre-piped assembly reduce installation time in the field.

Best Fit Applications
This system is built for mid-size boiler rooms, tight mechanical spaces, and installations where a vertical receiver layout is preferred.
The 25–30 HP sizing range makes this a practical option for boiler applications needing stronger pump performance while maintaining the compact footprint of an 18" x 36" vertical receiver.

Built for Higher Boiler Loads in a Vertical Layout
The BJHV-55 is a vertical 11 gauge steel condensate return system in the Rema Dri-Vac line, making it a practical choice where stronger pump capacity is needed without increasing the system footprint. It uses the Burks 15CS5M or 315CS5M pump package with an 18" x 36" vertical steel receiver for 25–30 HP boiler applications.
If the system remains in service but the tank needs replacement later, the matching 18 x 36 vertical replacement return tank provides a direct tank-only option.
