This could be a positive solution for some of the reoccurring problems. What do you think?

I hope they use the old motors that still work.

Looks like a good idea depending cost.

I imagine that the new system will have latest small diameter burner and Buehler pumps. However, Aqua-Hot isn't bashful at charging for their replacement parts. I'd like to see how much they want for a boiler exchange. My guess is that you need to have a lot wrong with your unit before it becomes financially viable.

Depending on the cost and the age of the unit, this could either be a good option for very old units, or a costly and largely unnecessary waste of money.

My advice is to find a really knowledgeable AquaHot service tech. If you are anywhere near any of these people, I would have them thoroughly inspect your system and recommend what needs to be done.

a.) Llyod DeGerald
b.) Roger Berke
c.) John Carrillo

All of them have web pages, and also have private service companies. Lloyd and John travel the country servicing the product.

A competent service professional could tell you in 10 minutes what your units problems are and what needs replaced. I would predict that you can get your unit "renewed" much cheaper by a really good service guy. Alternately, just taking it to some RV service company and taking your chances on the technical level of the "tech" you find there would, to me, be a likely waste of money.

I agree. Most dealer service center are a gamble. However, if your are anywhere near Atlanta I would add JR at NIRVC's Atlanta location to the above list.
