Hey guys trying to get the ball rolling on getting a new high efficiency boiler , but after reading posts on here and trying to figure out how to size a boiler I was wondering if there is a company / engineer to properly size a boiler for my home ? This way I can just tell the contractor what I need rather the. Dealing with different contractors and different opinions on sizing .
