    My buddy installs a couple of these units for less than $3000. It’s quite the deal for the quality that you get.

    My dad was always loyal to the Burnham brand, having them in all our rental properties (both steam and hotwater systems). When my parent's house needed a replacement for their Series 2 that cracked (30 years old), I could have went with a direct replacement. I decided after research to go with Alta Combi (200C model). It has so many great features as you note compared to the other units out there. Plus, no outside wire is required. My installer and I decided on separate pumps for 5 zones with a Taco relay box because we had rebates from the utility company in RI. Plus we saved a ton of space in the basement too by hanging it on the wall. The price for the unit was actually reasonable since I got it online shipped to the house. Where it was costly was the install since we had to do all new piping. System is quiet and the DHW heats up nice and quick. Lets see the long term how it holds up.

    Is the exhaust back pitched towards the boiler? I guess water can possibility sit in the pipe.

    What backflow preventer is this that you are using? I wanna check it out. Love that it doesnt need a drip vent

    • @PipeDoctor
      @PipeDoctor  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It’s called a double check valve and not a reduced pressure zone that you’re implying

I guess some of your customers ,family and friends still checking in on you. Love you buddy.

      @@DCHVAC it says you must use 30” of cpvc and 1 90 in between boiler and pvc vent pipe. Charlotte pipe also says not to be used for venting. The burnham guy in my area also showed me his install of the Alta and he also did not put it in. So everyones doing it

    isnt that primary secondary manifold spread too far? I thought it was supposed to be 4 times the diameter of the pipe or less? If its 1.25 inch shouldn't it be 5 inches or less to be effective? Its nice the control panel folds down and all the electronics seem to be covered in plastic so nothing gets shorted out while servicing.

    @HonchHeado Před 3 měsíci +1

    There is these electric European ones, there is no difference to temp or water pressure. They normally install them in Hotels. I have installed a few in high end homes they cost a fortune. But you don't need gas, you don't need water pressure vs temp, they are induction like induction hot plates they give you perm water pressure perm temp and when you cut the hot off the electric is off. I bookmarked one but can't find it again.
