when a search on google

only turns up a few sellers like holmes and echum and no manufacturer site - you got to question it's use

consider http://www.rinnai.us for the same application

or the rolls-royce of boilers

you cant beat the vie$$smann - the first $ is for the up front cost but the second $ sign is for what it saves

They're imported

from Korea or Japan, so I don't know about getting parts. They have oil and gas combo boilers and gas wall hungs. I wasn't too crazy about they only have 1/2" DHW piping and 1" for heating. Probably use a flat plate HX.

yes to the FPHX

Condensing modulating boiler with a 3-way to divert the BTU's through a small FPHX for domestic hot water.

Very limited venting & according to our local supply house, so many problems that they quickly dropped the line.

We're finishing a job where two Quietsides had been installed. Within one year, both had been replaced due to constant failure issues.

The installer told me he had replaced every one he had installed with other products.

The supply house manager indicated he felt there were issues with the 3-way valve and the difference in our country's electrical frequency (50 vs 60 hz).

The ones I've seen weren't installed "by the book", so the problems encountered weren't necessarily all manufacturer related. If the book says so many feet and so many ells can be utilized for exhaust/intake and that those ells must be long sweep, then violating those rules will eventually lead to problems.

Evidently those booklets make great knee pads!

Thanks for all the input, The area is only 576 sq ft. We have used all Combi units by Bradford White in the other buildings and I want to use something different.

Baxi Luna

Makes a nice wall hung gas combo with a lot of built in features. Triangle Tube also makes gas combos with a SS inner tank for the domestic. Probably pricier then a wall hung.
