Buderus Logano GA124 Gas Boiler Review




The Buderus Logano GA124 Gas Boiler is a sealed combustion boiler, which means it uses out side air for combustion instead of taking heated air from the home. The Buderus Logano GA124 Gas Boiler is available in three models which have heating capacities ranging from 59,000 to 104,000 BTU/Hr with efficiencies between 85 and 85.2% AFUE making them Energy Star rated. Having the Energy Star rating is important because it signifies the boiler meets standards of efficiency and makes it so you can receive a variety of Rebates, Grants, and Tax Credits for installing it. The Buderus Logano GA124 gas boilers are eligible for up to a $200 Rebate under the Appliance Stimulus Package, a Grant up to $6500 under the Weatherization Assistance Program if you qualify, and Income Tax Credit of 30% of the money you spend to have a Buderus Logano GA124 Gas Boiler installed in your home up to $1500. These “Free Money Programs” can greatly offset the cost of having a boiler upgrade and have you reaping the energy savings benefits sooner.
