Weil-McLain CGa-5 gas boiler that has been installed for about two months and run only a few times before the project scope changed. It is clean, in perfect working order, and will be professionally disconnected. 

Details:

• Model: CGa-5

• Gas Type: Natural Gas

• Capacity: 133,000 BTU Input / 111,000 Heating Capacity

DM me with your contact info and I will send a photo of the unit and its tag that shows the serial number so you can verify the date code. This is an easy drop-in replacement for a contractor looking for a reliable cast-iron unit for a budget-conscious client.

Asking $1,800. 

Located in Central Connecticut. Must come up one set of sturdy basement stairs. You will need your own truck and muscle to load it (approx. 370 lbs). 

PM me if interested or if you want to request specific photos. Thanks

    "Project scope changed"…… wonder what they meant by that?

    Still available Weil McLain CGa-5 boiler from many venders.

    You seem to have it listed for 1/2 price. You may be able to get rid of it on Facebook Marketplace as previously suggested. That will attract people local to your location so that shipping won't be so costly.

    Doubt if anyone this forum will be interested. What Town/City are you located?

    When I was in business, I would save something like that for a Customer that could not afford a new boiler system but desperately needed one. I would even ask any of my installers if they wanted to donate their time to install it, then get the local news paper to do a public interest story about "Low Income local resident gets New Heating System donated by local contractor". I would work for a day on the job myself at no charge. Then I would take my guys out for dinner for their donated time. Good Publicity!!!

    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    I wouldn't diminish the person selling it. I understand why contractors wouldn't touch it for warranty concerns etc.

    But for the right person at the right time it's probably a good deal.
