Just wondering how often you guys have to add water?  Seems like I add a little less then a gallon a month.

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Loading wood into boiler question

« on: November 06, 2013, 01:30:57 AM »

Hey guys, I’ve been running my Empyre elite XT200 now for about a week.  Everything is going pretty well except I am having problems with bridging and my fire going out.  How do you guys load your box to avoid this?  We are pretty limited here to our selection of wood so I am burning spruce.  I have had a few nights where it didn’t bridge and burned 13 hours or so but more times than not I wake up and it has bridged on me.  Any tips would be awesome! Thanks!

Empyre / Circualtion pumps

« on: October 27, 2013, 06:57:18 AM »

Hello everyone, new to the forum and new to the wood boiler world.  I'm currently installing a empyre elite XT 200 at my home here in Alaska.  I am tying into my existing oil boiler through a plate exchanger.  My question is regarding the circulation pumps.  I have one hooked up to the optimizer but do I also need one somewhere in line on the loop going to the house to move the water from the boiler to the plate exchanger?  Any help would be appreciated!
