The recommended Buderus model is the G-115-4.

Does the chimney liner change you recommend impact my decision, or is it simply better regardless?

Our house is 3200 sqft; currently using 3 heating zones (one for each floor); forced hot water base boards; four bedrooms; no kids at the moment, but will be in the future; natural gas not an option (unfortunately); we have a failing Burnham V-14-a-t

...did not do a heat loss evaluation. Neither said anything about the chimney, though we just bought the house and had the chimney inspected.

Thoughts?

System 2000 or Buderus?

@ February 14, 2012 10:53 AM in System 2000 or Buderus?

Our boiler is shot and we are trying to decide whether to replace it with a System 2000 or a Buderus. The quote for the System 2k is approximately $8k, while the quote for the Buderus is about $10k. I have confidence that both companies would do a good job with the install. And so my question is: what system is better? I define better along three metrics: how long will it last? how efficient is it? how much maintenance will it require? Any assistance would be appreciated.
