Energy Kinetics

What Energy Kinetics does

Energy Kinetics, Inc. is a privately held, family-owned manufacturer of high-efficiency residential and commercial boilers founded in 1979 and headquartered at a 64,000 sq ft production facility in Lebanon, New Jersey. The company designs and builds gas, oil, propane, and biofuel heating systems — including the System 2000 Frontier, Accel CS condensing, Ascent Combi, Ascent Plus Combi, and 90+ Resolute RT product lines — that combine a low mass steel heat exchanger, integrated storage tank, and a patented Energy Manager control with Hybrid Energy Recovery to optimize combustion and reclaim residual heat.

The core technical differentiation rests on the patented Energy Manager control architecture and proprietary materials: a specially formulated steel claimed to be roughly 50% stronger than cast iron with superior thermal-shock resistance, and the Sealix Silicon Dioxide bonded stainless steel plate heat exchanger for hard-water durability. In December 2023, Energy Kinetics became the first manufacturer worldwide to offer UL-listed boilers capable of running on any blend from fuel oil through 100% biodiesel (B100) without burner modification. All products are 100% ENERGY STAR qualified, carry an industry-leading lifetime limited warranty, and are marketed with third-party-validated fuel savings of up to 40%.

Energy Kinetics sells directly to a certified Premier Dealer network of installing contractors (minimum 20 installations per year, factory training, 24-hour service capability), supported by territory managers who route consumer leads generated through the company's website savings calculator and phone sales line. Revenue derives primarily from hardware sales of complete boiler systems (System 2000, Resolute, Accel CS, Ascent Combi) and a long-tail replacement parts business covering Energy Manager controls, plate heat exchangers, and service boards for every product produced since 1979, supplemented by professional training services. End customers span residential homeowners, commercial building owners/managers, and federal/institutional buyers including the U.S. Coast Guard and Aleutian Housing Authority, served across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest, Northwest U.S., and Alaska.
