Subject: Faema service in Houston areaa?


A neighbor gave up on the Expobar and recently bought a used Faema & hauled
it over for me to look at. It's way too heavy for me to mess with (probably
100# plus) so I talked him into having it checked out by a pro.

Does anyone have a service source in the Houston area (at 100# it'd cost too
much to ship both ways)? It doesn't have to be a Faema service center, it's
well out of warranty & we can get the parts needed at cost. We just need
someone that might charge by the hour or flat rate to do diagnostics on it
and be available for a few questions as needed.

Oh, yes I forgot the details.
120 volt, 60 Hz, (?) watts - labels scraped away. Compact model 1 group
automatic w/plumbed water & drain. There's no model number or name other
than Faema. It doesn't appear too old but it doesn't look like the current
models either.

Which Expobar was it, Robert, and why did the neighbor give up?

(Close to buying a Brewtus II)

Your II has two boilers & won't be a problem, but his had the HX & very
little temp stability. I understand that the II has a digital (PID)
thermostat also?
