Aluminum VS stainless steel.

I have recently installed high efficiency stainless models with good feedback from customers. I have also installed many aluminum heat exchanger models with no problems. What are the advantages of one versus the other.  Is the water quality an issue. Most of my work is in the city with municipal water. Any feedback would be great.  Thanks

    H2O quality

    Its about pH. AL exchangers need a neutralizer here.



    Different design as well.



    I pulled 2-3 cups of crap out of a WM Ultra HX with a hack saw blade last week. Night & day performance increase.
    Just a guy running some pipes.
