Is $12,000 to install a boiler system a fair price?
Project Details
My boiler only has 4gpm flow, but if I shut the isolation to the secondary loop, it goes over 10gpm. I swapped the secondary loop pump to an identical pump as the primary loop, but the issue persists. The boiler's output temperature only reaches about 105°F after an hour, with only a 5 to 10 temp differential across the boiler. I can sometimes hear stuff moving through the piping, possibly bubbles or debris. I called the company, and they said it was normal, which feels like gaslighting. I'm starting to feel like I got ripped off.
