I was wondering if anyone has installed one yet? I put out a bid to replace a 22 yr old Heatmaker and it seems just the ticket. Comments?

Excellence
Is the new combo heat and tank in tank all in one cabinet.
Basically eliminating the mini tank that they have for the Prestige SOLO.
Both the Excellence or mini tank will be able to give you 3 gpm (180 gph)of DHW. Nice for a small cabin or home.
I have not installed the excellence or the mini tank as I find the 3 gpm DHW a little bit lacking for most homes. But I have installed the TT Prestige boilers and they are one of the betters units out there.

Solo exelence
Have recenty tested one of these boilers as I have had great success with the solo110 and others found the indirect to be ok for a single load at 2 gpm at 109F for a shower but was a little shy and took to long to recover with the colder ground water temps here is calgary AB canada I will stay with a eperate indirect and boiler system to provide my clients what they want for hot water as the cost for materials is not greatly increased this way0 -
GPM's are crucial
make sure of the domestic load, the smaller indirects are a nice substitute for larger storage indirects but there are limits to there production.
Recirc pumps can tax the capacity of the smaller indirects (most notably in the heating season when the boiler is cycling between priority domestic water heating and space heating). Definately utilize a timer on the HW recirc.
With the quality of indirects stand by losses, if there is a doubt about capacity consider a larger stortage tank.
GPM is the deciding factor.
