We have gotten a few quotes on upgrading our cape to a oil boiler. Buderus 115/28 boiler and a Buderus LT160 Hot water tank. The quotes have been off by as much as 3,000 using the same equipment!

What is a reasonable estimate to have the system installed?

4 zones
2200 sq feet
The house commands about 85,000 BTUs.
First floor only, access to baseboards from basement
Vent out an existing fireplace chimney

Additionally:
Should we be concerned about putting the oil tank in the garage? Winter temps can reach the mid-teens in the garage. It is not insulated.
