We have used a Meaco DD8L for the last two winters in the UK. When running normally it is a great unit, but lately it is running warmer than usual and with less efficiency. Given its importance, we 'd like to get a new one for the upcoming winter.

We need for it to have the advantages of the Meaco: reasonably quiet, adjustable thermostat, and since we leave it running when away from the boat, continuous drain and automatic restart to last setting after a power outage.

I can get a Meaco here in the Netherlands (for €250), but it would not have much warranty support since shipping back to the UK would be impractical.

Thank you for any suggestions.
