    What for?

    What kind of application would this be? If for DHW, perhaps a flat plate heat exchanger would be the ticket.

    I have an existing

    Indirect, and need some extra storage.

    well

    That would be about almost a 18 gal. tank uninsulated and involve piping changes.  Why don't you crank up the temp of the existing indirect and add a mixing valve to temper the out going water?

    I used a couple of their stubby tanks years back. They were either 30-40 gallon tanks. They were great for crawl spaces.  I would check into other brands though

    Thanks all

    I have a GB 142/30, and have tried setting the HW at max. Temporally, but I still run out, just need something to take care of the initial dump. I think I found something that will fit ,

    Thanks guys. Will keep you posted.
