in THE MAIN WALL
I've read some great things about the energy kinetics 2000 system. Now I need input from the guys who have had their hands on them. Are they truly that much more efficient? Are they reliable? Are they easy to service? Are they quiet? Are they worth the cost? I'm anxious to know if this is a product that I should be thinking of selling to my customers?

    We have a bunch in my area, they are ok, but as with any boiler they have their limitations. The biggest thing is they need the bypass piped in and a working high(air) vent on top of the boiler or they will plug up or spring a leak. They are a snap to clean, just undo the bolts in the back and there is the whole thing. I've found they have to run at least at a negitive two or more, if not the puff switch will trip out the burner( reset lockout). They are quiet running with either Beckett or Carlin. The boards are a little tricky if you never worked on them befor, get their book and it will help you a lot. The nice thing with the managers is if it goues down you can pop in a dummy board to get you buy. Changing the managers is also a snap. All in all, if you do your homework and make sure you try not to sqyeaze more out then they are ratted for and not a quick high demand load, theyt are pretty good.
