    low quality boiler

    Wasn't sure they still made them. Unless you have an aquabank tied into the coil, hot water will be poor. This was a quick install due to flood damage? Best part about it is that the customer bought it, you didn't recommend it.

    fires nice though

    after the install i had an oil tech come to calibrate it.he didnt have to touch a thing.he did all his combustion tests and the boiler was running perfect.only issue is the boiler has a digital control.manual says to run boiler at HL205 andLL190.coil doesnt have a seperate aquastat.the control is digitally programmed and is similar to trhe burnham ES2.I want to lower the settings.There is only 2 people in house so water wont be an issue,do you think that would be ok to do.I am calling the company tomorrow to make sure.Are you being a little hard on the boiler is it really that bad?
