We’re a bit hard-pressed to make a quick decision and don’t know which way to jump.
A 10 year old Bradford white combi system leaked & burned out motor and has left us without heat or hot water in a (Thank, God) warmer than normal January winter.
Local heat guy has quoted $3,750 to replace and install new 50 gallon combi tank.
I cannot find comparaters. And I am ticked that the joint that leaked was the manufacturer’s just 4 months past warranty. How likely are we to have to replace this system before we would a conventional furnace? The original was victim of another flood 20 years ago. If we moved ahead and replaced, it would be our 3rd combi system in 20 years. This is getting expensive for what is a pretty noisey, if ecnomical, form of heat and hot water.
I am hoping somebody has advice for a not-wealthy woman who just wants a quiet, reliable heat source that is also kind to the envirnonment. If we were to go tankless on the hot water side, could anybody recommend a good, reliable brand?
Many thanks,
Kathy Woodcock
