New boiler - HomeModders.com

Hey everyone, I just bought my house and now I'm thinking of replacing the boiler. I have an oil fired Burnham V7 series that I've been reading some pretty bad reviews on. I'm thinking of replacing it with this one Biasi Oil Boiler. Oil Fired Boilers. Oil Hot Water Boilers. B-10 Oil Boilers for radiant heat & hydronic heating systems because it seems like a much better unit than the one I have. Right now the Burnham is providing my domestic water too so I'm thinking of putting in an indirect tank hooked up to the Biasi. The tank I was thinking of was this one Heat Flo Indirect Storage Tanks. Heat-Flo Hot Water Tanks. Single Heat Exchanger. Double Heat Exchanger - Heating and Solar Systems. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it.

Welcome to the site

I don't have any experience with that particular brand/model. I do have the holding tank setup though. It works great. Mine is much smaller than that one looks (i think its 5 gal). Hot water always. it never runs out. I've taken hour long showers before when my back was in knots and it never got cold.

How about some details on the house? Size? Is your hot water built into the furnace as well?
