    Can anyone provide the efficiency rating on this boiler (Weil-McLain Model 80 380) and compare it to Buderus G-215/7. What would you choose?

    Thanks

    I have install both

    They both have there strong points, but the over all eff. goes to the Buderus, most of all if you use the 2107.When i use the 80 series i instll a 6006 to stop the circs from running till boiler reaches 140*

    Oil--82.8%. Gas--80.4%. We have installed a dozen or so. Nice water boiler.

    80 efficiency

    What type of efficiency rating are you looking for? Combustion, afue, seasonal?boilers above 300,000 btu's are not required to post an efficiency rating according to the DOE.
