I had three vendors inspect the installation and provide me their expert opinion on replacing the heat exchangers or the entire unit with the intention of mounting the units on the roof where they can be worked on when required. Two recommended against replacing the heat exchangers alone and recommended complete unit replacement. vendor did submit a bid on replacement of the heat exchangers only

In view of the recommendation to replace the complete units and from my personal observation, it is recommended that the furnace be replaced and new units located on the roof. similar to the unit installed for the computer room.
Accordingly, it is recommended that the quotation from Thermodyne for replacing the units at a cost of $2368 be accepted. Funds in Account Number 01 -1 31 -2460 are sufficient to cover these costs.
