Can you replace the tank only on an oil fired hot water heater and re-use the burner?

Nov 18, 2008 by BK | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

I have a 10 yr old oil-fired hot water heater that has started to leak from the top. I have been told I neediness to replace the whole thing, but it seems to me you should be able to re-use the burner since it is still good and repay only the tank itself.

Yes it can be done, not positive about where to buy tank separate though. I've worked with them and have interchanged parts without disability.

I installed a Watts 1170 Thermostatic mixing valve to hamper scalding and it is set for 110 deg. F absolve. The enigma is that if the boiler water temperature drops below180 deg. F, the forth temperature for house-broken water (both through the Thermostatic mixing valve and through a by-archaic around the Thermo valve) drops below 100 deg. F. By the on occasion the burner kicks on (at 165 deg. F), the home water temp is all the way down to 80 deg. That's too unfriendly. the boiler is a Slantfin Autonomy II hot water boiler with LW-5 tankless water heater. The boiler is outfitted with a Honeywell L8124 Aquastat. Currently, the aquastat is set for 165 Deg.F (low limit), 185 Deg. F (dear limit) with a differential environment of 15 Deg. F. Even with these settings, the boiler water temperature reaches up to 220 deg. F at 22 psi. At first...
