Steam boiler
It looks like my steam boiler (Burnham) is leaking steam. In case I need to replace it, does anyone have recommendations and insights into costs for a new boiler and good installer? Thx

Do you know if it still carries the manufacturer's warranty?

I don't think so (we purchased the property early last year and it looked approx 5 years old). Anyway, I had someone look at it, and it may be the case that it was only the pressure relief valve (after seeing you point it out in the video...) that didn't close properly. That sounds a lot less expensive than a new heating element or boiler...Thanks!

My Burnham boiler is shot. Purchased the propery 2 yrs ago and I now need a new boiler.Please note I have 4 separate boilers and they were suppose to be new. Any way I have no documents stating the warranty.... I tried calling the people I purchased from.... haven't got any response.... Does anyone know apprx how much it will cost to install a new one or how I can go about fnding out if its still under warranty? Any insight will be deeply appreciated... I need to get some heat to my tenants ASAP.

Just wondering: How do you know it's "shot"?

I was told by 2 licensed plumbers one quoted me an installation for 2900 and I'm still waiting for another Quote from the 2nd plumbers
