I’m looking to relocate my fuel oil boiler from interior space (in a louvered closet outside my kids room…no good) to my garage, under the house.
Trouble is, my existing oil boiler (weil-McClain 141K btu) takes up a little too much space for me to then squeeze DW’s car in the garage.
Does anyone marked a wall-mounted OIL boiler?
I’ve gotten web hits for such units in the UK (Veisman for instance) but haven’t found a make/model in the US market. Anyone run into something like this?
PS: I’ll reuse my indirect DHW tank, but I could pipe that through the wall so it sits in the laundry room adjacent to the garage, to save space. The new boiler would obviously have to have a coil for it though.
Thanks!

Ask over at heatinghelp.com's forum "the wall."
If anybody knows, it's the pros over there.
I have friends in the HVAC business and know a decent amount from helping them out from time to time. I do not think there are any wall mounted oil boilers, I think all the wall mounts are natural gas or propane. Viessman makes one and the one my buddies use is the Buderus wall mount gas boiler. They really like that one, very efficent. The supply house cost on that is about $2500 depending on exactly which size you need. I don't know how much extra supplies cost though.
If you want something small for oil you could try munchkin boilers (I think that is the spelling) I don't know anything about them other than they are small.
