Question for Master Plvmber
A friend is buying a co-op with a Burnham Spacemaster SM3 boiler. I cant find much info online about them. What is your opinion of it? She is conecrned about costs to maintain and “tune ups” if needed.

To tell you the truth, I can’t think of a single reason to use that boiler. Evidently, neither can Burnham. They are only distributing it for another manufacturer and don’t even bother to list it on their website.
Where a sidewall-venting boiler is required, why not install a 92%-96% efficient unit instead of the 82.5% efficiency delivered by the Spacemaster. The venting requirements are the same and that’s always the biggest obstacle in a wall-mounted boiler.
