Have a rental apartment over a garage that gets heat and hot water from a 30-yo Burnham RS 109 that is not working properly any more. To avoid the hassle of oil in the future, I was thinking of getting this whole setup replaced with a wall hung, propane combi boiler like the Westinghouse WBRCLP140W they sell at home depot for $2,100
Problem is, I can't seem to find a local plumber to install this. Am still running some quotes through Thumbtack and Homeadvisor.
In the meantime, I have reached out to local heating and cooling companies who install similar setups with Naviens or NTI appliances and am kind of floored by their pricing. I am getting prices quoted in the $9,000 range, which seems crazy to me. Even if their boilers are more expensive and cost $3,500 they are still asking for 6k or so for install.
Does anyone have experience in getting a unit like that professionally installed? What was your price for that?
Or if you can recommend a plumber who would install the Westinghouse boiler (or any other similar one) in south-east Connecticut I would be very interested.
Thanks
