In reply to vernon colbourne. That soot is build up in you chimney. I had the same thing happening to me. Turns out my chimney was full of soot. I removed flue and vacumed out 2 garbage bags of soot.

In reply to Nick G. I agree, They are both decent boilers.

Hi Meri,

I missed this comment, sorry about that, BUT what boiler did you wind up going with and why? If you don’t mind sharing :)

Thanks so much!

I have a SGO series boiler and i just started having problems with it. My pump got clogged the first time but i had it fixed. But now i keep getting this black soot build up that will not go away, and the guy has been to my house twice. What could be causing this and the boiler doesn’t want to ignite.

Weil McLain, makes solid boilers, peerless makes great boilers also,, its usually the mechanics preference, both are top of the line stuff, you will be happy with either choice. Our Preference is Weil…

I am choosing between a Weil-Mclain oil-fired steam boiler and a Peerless. The Peerless because it has no rubber gaskets, but I have heard that they are noisier. Any opinion? Best boiler, best service, etc. Thanks.
