oil fired combo units for heat and domestic hot water

in THE MAIN WALL
My oil fired hot water heater is shot. After 20 years, I have no gripes. I also heat with an oil fired boiler. Since I am going to invest a good deal in a water heater, is there an option to replace my aging boiler with a combo unit that will do both? Hope this is not a repeat of a well worn question. I looked but couldn't find it.

Thanks

    I'd rather see

    you put tank onto the boiler.

    Most will say indirects and I won't fight that battle anymore, but personally I love my external tankless, JMO.

    You're much better off

    with a boiler and indirect. The TT Elite is nice but pricey and you still have that flue down the middle of your tank sucking out the heat. If space is an issue, a small steel boiler like a Burnham LE could fit on a stand over a low-boy indirect tank.
