hey guys , just wondering who has a c375, is it just a bigger boiler or does it have a lot of diff options, i have a mf 5000 right now, just alittle undersized tho, i don't burn coal , just wood, the mf 10,000 is too big for my needs, so i believe the 375 is my only option.if anybody has any user experience i would appreciate hearing some info on this model...thanks guys

You can PM Scott7m.  He ran a smaller "C" series.  Slim can tell you about their features.

Honestly I know nothing about the C series guys but I would be happy to call Canada to get some info if you would like me to constable?

I think the main differences are that they have an oval firebox instead of a round one, the doors don't stick out as far from the front of the furnace which I think would help eliminate cold spots and condensation around the door.  There is an extra divider in the exhaust bypass that makes the exhaust make 3 passes instead of 2 before it exits.
As far as that, they still have the same standard features that all MF series furnaces do as far as shaker grates and ash pan and controls.

well guys, I just got a price on a 10,000 e, Im alittle nervous to be even thinking of this,but I believe im under sized, today I put my 5000mf forsale just to see if there is any bites,if there is I think I may bite the bullet, my house is approx. 4500 sq feet plus dhw and I think im working it too hard especially in the cold months, as you've prob seen my only complaint is when all the zones come on at once, my boiler temp drops from the quantity of cold water headn out to the boiler, not too mention I am going thru a ple of wood and maybe ill even cut that down abit, my concern is that the 10,000 may be too big and give me other issues like idling too long or something...now ill just wait and see if I can sell the 5000.ill keep yas posted....however chime in if ya want about your 10.000 experinces...it even looks to big,lolol

Have you looked at the G series, if wood consumption is an issue, you might want to give it a look, I know that I'm a long ways away in southern Maine but I have a G 200 running here that you are welcome to come and see, we will also be showing it in a live demo at the logging expo in Bangor,  Maine on May 15-16

I really think you'll be fine with a 10k.  I know someone heating 2400 sq ft with a 10k because he doesn't have his barn hooked up to it yet.  He has some creosote build up but nothing too crazy.
