Hello everyone I am ready to update my old Johnson wood boiler with something more efficient, I want to burn less wood. My current boiler is 17 years old and is coming to the end of its life cycle. I am sold on gasser models. I have been looking at central boiler, heatmaster, and polar. Polar dealer is closet to me if that matters. my house is modern built in 2000 has 6 inch walls. house is 4200 sq ft (2100 main floor with baseboard hot water, 2100 finished basement with radiant in floor) 576 sq ft attached garage with radiant in floor, and 1200 sq ft detached garage with radiant in floor which has never been hooked up. I have a forced air blower that I use in that garage instead. any suggestions on the brands I mentioned or others I didn't mention that are worth a look? I am going to put in new pex from the boiler to both buildings I want the good stuff like thermopex or logstor, any recommendations? I am running approx. 150 ft from stove to house and 15 ft from stove to second garage.
Thank you for all suggestions!
