    Steel boilers

    Burnham LE is one of the better ones,
    also axeman andersen.But I still would install a cast iron boiler if possible.Most cast units will last at least 35yrs. if maintain.Seems like most steel boilers I see after 20 yrs look it. Hope this helps.

    I like to...

    use Thermodynamics. Esp the LM series. It is wet based, built in air scoop,good warranty compared to others,competively priced, available w/ many burners(Carlin, becket, riello...(READILY),The burnham LE is is not. lower mass for those who like that. There S series is also good w/ 5gpm tankless coil as is their CWL model for a lower profile wet leg set up. I have used all 3 and no its not a Buderus. Where people(HO and Contractors) can't see value they are a good alternative.
    Its been a while since I used one but the olympus boiler by axman-anderson is also a good choice (maybe even better than the LM) hope this is useful,kpc
