I've had a few friends of mine that have been talked into installing the new suitcase style boilers that hang on the wall. They are very efficient but they have a higher rate of problems and it seems these companies installing them don't have the proper equipment or training to diagnose problems. When they work they work great.
I built a new home about 13 years ago and installed a regular gas boiler and have had no issues. I built another in the lakes region with a 90% efficient hot air furness that I owned for 10 years without ever having an issue.
My friends installed their newer style wall hung boilers within the past 8 years the they all have had multiple issues with them. One of them had to be replaced under warrantee after 4 years because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. Just sayin, buyer beware!
