Todd, That is interesting stuff. These are modulated boilers? I didn't know they could do that with oil because of the condensation issues.
Paul,
I'm not really sure if they are modulated boilers...in fact I'm really not sure what that means. Buderus has a pretty good website with all the specs on these. I guess I'll have to ask my heating guy that question. I know my high efficiency gas boiler is a modulating boiler but I have no idea about these.
I'd look at an open system linked in to a multi fuel boiler, save you a fortune.Good article, so cheers
