Seeing as how New York and arguably the country requires Phase 2 outdoor wood boilers, you should petition the town to have this ordinance amended to be current with gassification boilers. I assume this is a 20 year old ordinance when conventionals were smoking people out.  Now that there is no smoke they should really amend both the distance and the time frame for using.

The time frame is a new addition added in 2015: http://philipstown.com/tba72915.pdf

New addition brought on by what problem? In 2015 only gassers in ny state should be operating which have no smoke or smell.

As far as I can tell someone asked at a board meeting.  Presumably heard about similar ordinance elsewhere.

So would previous installs be grandfathered from this new rule?

I think setbacks and such are grandfathered, but that the months allowed for burning are not grandfathered.  Worried your town will pass such a thing?

No, I just think it is complete bs. How can you change the rules after the fact?
How can you do that with no public
Session to allow for arguments from the permit holders. And furthermore for what reason would they limit when you can use it?!?!?

I hope that never happens here, I run mine all year , I heat my pool and hot water all summer but I am smart about it , I don't smoke the neighborhood out .I keep it burning  real hot by not over loading it  and I use mostly pine so most of it gets used up so when it's idling it doesn't stink up the neighborhood

You can go and argue with a town board all you want, most won’t listen and the few that aren’t complete idiots will know you’re gonna have smoke when first starting it or loading it, this would hold true for any brand gasifier and that’s all the reason they need.

There is nothing written at the "State" level that would over rule local law about heating your house?

Fire ole "Buford the Dragon" up today. I named it that after it almost got me couple times when the flame puff 😄 took about 2 hours to bring it up to 180. Just old junk rotten wood I had picked out to start with. So now it's twice a day for next 6 months.

May be firing earlier than I wanted, supposed to be down to freezing a couple of times in the next week. I may change my plans for tomorrow and get the site glass installed in the G200 then fire it up. Will run it while converting a fuel oil burner to waste oil then mounting that in the shop boiler in place of the current totally manual one that I’ve been using for a long time.

I had planned on starting mine around 1st weekend of November. However here in Ky we are having 2-3 nights in a row in low 30s. Just hate to hear that heat pump kicking on. I've got 25-30 cords of wood cut and stacked. So it wasn't a hard choice for me.
