    2 boilers

    we oversize our boilers a lttle to accomadate future additions and the main reason is if one boiler goes down the other is able to handle 2/3's of the load. the burners are beckett

    Nice job

    We have used the 215 series but not that big. What model Beckett is that with the cover? How long did it take to pipe the boilers up? One (humble) suggestion, pipe the elec and oil line on the same side as the door hinges it makes cleaning and inspection a breeze.

    beatiful work Jim

    I am curious, why did you choose the tekmar control over the Buderus control? You could have added a staging card, and also a mixing card to get multiple water temps, outdoor reset, domestic hot water priority and stage firing?

    Nice Job But...

    Jim Nice job but it would have been nice to put flex lines on the oil lines feeding the burner so you wouldn't have to disconnect them when cleaning the boiler and have the wire feeding the burners just a little longer. From the picture it looks like it is going to be a little tight opening the doors. other than that looks great!
