Both of these boilers (MFG)are very reputable and would highly recommend either one.
National grid can give you a great deal because of two things,one they buy in Hugh bulk,and secondly they are under the impression that you will buy there PM/maintenance plan.
One question for you,if they install it will you also be offered a "Green rebate" from the Government?

If I'm not mistaken Burnham was bought out from RBI,RBI is a MFG plant out in Western MA.I was there last May for advanced Hydronics and I swear I over heard that they bought out Burnham which is in PA.Burnham has the oldest & largest Foundry in the Country for boilers.
RBI was founded in the early-mid 1900's.Lochinvar is just a sub division/modle like Chevy to GM.Lochinvar has a bunch of new boilers that modulate from 75K-6million BTU's there are several smaller one's that work in modulate in increments of 75K-200,000 BTU's which would be perfect for the house that has plans to expand over the years,any way I would recommend spending the extra cash for a out side temp bulb this will save on heating cost,I can explan more but don't want keep typing,shot story is this will help you pay off that conversion alot sooner.

what percentage are you looking at?


You will be happy with the conversion,and will see a big change in cost effectiveness.
