: All are in the low 80's AFUE's. I prefer Weil SGO.
: But Peerless and Smith are also good.

Thanks for the answer. How do I size a new steam boiler? The sq footage is approx 2850 - 2 floors, 1 zone on 1st floor. There are 12 column style radiators. When I total all of the radiators together I get a steam sq.footage of 383.6. Multiply that by 240 & I get approx 92064 btu's. Depending on the mfg, do I round up or down?
