Replace Oil Hot Water Heater

[tfolk72]

Looking to replace oil hot water heater. Current heater is a Bock 32E.

1) I dont see many oil hot water heaters available. Are there any others or should I stick with Bock?

2) Should I get a new burner with it or reuse? How should I tell whether I should replace the whole thing?

Thanks

Move on to a heat pump water heater.
Time to end the use of fossil fuels.
I am an old fart, owner of many oil, gas and midstream stocks and have been installing gas lines my whole career, but, the time is now to all play a part in moving away from f.fs

I respectfully disagree. Vote for Elder or Jenner.

Bock is the main player around your area. The age and condition of the burner will be key factors In replacing or keeping it.
that said a new burner is not much compared to the tank cost

While you are still able…get rid of all oil burning appliances (furnace?) and the tank. Go with a heat pump.
