I recieved a new information packet
from the Keystoker folks today.

Apparently they have eliminated the KAA-4-1 as a
dual fuel model and have added the Reillo burner
to the dual fuel line up...................................................

Dual fuel is available on all models except the KAA-2. What is new is that the KAA-4-1 is NOT available with a direct vent. All specs stay the same, otherwise.
Not rumor, straight for Don this AM. :!:

The literature that was sent to me was "old" literature
about the dual fuel units :^( but its still valid-I still don't
know what unit was crossed out.

Riello burners are a nightmare to work on. I wouldn't touch it and was taught not to!

Ah, unless you know about something, please don't comment. Your post is total nonsense.

If you feel there is an issue with Riello burners please qualify your statement with an explanation.

I felt like I have to post a reply to this one. I have a riello burner and it is great. If you do some research you will find that the other oil burner manufacturers are just now employing the features that riello has had for 20 years or more. If someone finds the servicing of these difficult it is because they have not availed themselves to the training that riello offers or for other reasons that I think I need not mention
