Retention Oil Burners Every non-fl ame retention burner, and most pre-1985 fi rst generation fl ame retention burn- ers, should be replaced. Boilers or furnaces installed after 1980 will run much better with a new burner. If a new boiler or furnace was installed before 1970, it is better to replace the system than just put in a new burner. New burners with their white-hot fl ame may “kill” the old unit quicker. Replacing an old ineffi cient boiler or furnace is one of the best investments you can make. It will pay for itself in a few years and will continue providing savings for years to come.
