Commercial Gas Boilers: Peerless vs. SlantFin?
Replacing a gas hot water system boiler in an old 10-plex apt bldg.
The Peerless GM07 natural gas commercial boiler bid is about $8,000 less than the SlantFin Galaxy GG 300 from a competing vendor.
Both bids use basically the same setup, 2 staged and alternating boilers with Tekmar controls, each with the same efficiency rating and BTU ratings. Both vendors are respected, longtime local HVAC companies with good reputations for service.
I can't figure why the large spread in bids ($12,000-20,000). Is the SlantFin equipment better built, or does it have a better maintenance track record? Any feedback or experience would be appreciated.
We do not talk price
The only thought is some details of the install are not the same. Have you asked the bidders?
Cost is what you spend , value is what you get.
