I was about to buy an ITR boiler for the trawler as I have one on the sailboat. The ITR dealer suggested I also look at Kabola. I'm pretty familiar with the ITR, not so much with the Kabola.
It appears to have many cast iron parts and a steel enclosure. Have there been corrosion problems with these?
It appears not to be highly integrated - control boards, heat exchangers etc. all are external. Some of the ITR products are highly integrated with few external components required. Kabola makes a "calorifier" and a "combi" model, but damned if I can figure out from their literature what the difference is. Anyone know?
The Kabola runs on 240V50Hz, and they get there by supplying an inverter. There is not a heck of a lot of specs on power consumption for control, igniter, blower, circ pump etc. In fact their documentation could be described as sparse.
Looking for experiences on these, particularly if you are familiar with both.
