I recently bought a house with an oil furnace without a separate water heater and the water is way too hot. I asked our service guy how to decrease the temp, he suggested that I buy a separate unit that attaches to the furnace for about $1200.00. I asked if there was some kind of simple anti-scald valve he could add, but he said they are $200 and only last about 2 yrs. He did not recommend one. I am not sure if this guy was being honest or if he was just trying to make a big sale. Does anyone know if there is a simple inexpensive fix for this or do I have to drop the $1200? Has anyone used an antiscald valve in this situation?
Thanks
