"Inspector indicated major repairs required due to cracking of the heat exchanger (indicated there were 7 or more hairline cracks) and a crack in the outer plate. Shut off gas to heater leaving us with no heat. Sent follow-up "expert" inspector to verify his analysis. He also indicated heater was unsafe and required extensive repair or replacement. Required us to sign waver if he turned gas back on. Estimated $2100 for repair or installation of a new system ($4-8 K). My basic understanding of the system led me to believe there was no immediate danger as cracks did not lead to fumes entering the house thus we obtained 2nd and 3rd opinions from other heating contractors who conducted an extensive inspection and could not find any cracks in the exchanger. He indicated the unit was not unsafe and that it could last another 10 years. He replaced the cracked plate and brought the gas tubing up to code (something Gallagher's had not identified). The final cost was $360. We have terminated our annual contract with Gallagher's.
