Is $6,000 to line chimney and make existing 36-year-old boiler serviceable a fair price?
Project Details
I recently closed on a house. The inspection indicated my gas boiler was old, and I expected it to last this winter. However, an HVAC tech informed me it's unsafe and not up to code due to missing vital safety precautions. I also discovered there's no chimney liner. I'm now deciding between two options: making the current setup serviceable or installing a new combi boiler.
