HeatMaster / Re: Price increase!

Bad credit past. Got turned down from the bank. I got $3k saved up, which is just about how much I spent on propane this year.

Wish I could be one of those sales. Unfortunatly, financing is imposible. So looks like ill be seeing the propane man forever. Funny thing is two years of propane would pay for the furnace, but I can only raise 1 years worth at a time.

HeatMaster / Re: Is the E series worth the extra grand?

The good part for me is that there is a spot along the highway with a exposed coal seam. You can stop and load up a truck full of nice size peices that fall down.

So I think the Heatmaster brand is the one I want to buy, just trying to figure out what model.
I'll be heating roughly 2000 sqaure feet with it and dhw.
Debating between the 3000, 5000, & 5000E.

Hardy / Re: 1 year old Hardy cracked water jacket?
« on: March 11, 2014, 07:03:12 PM »I don't think the H5 has auto-fill feature. Therefore it would be easy to get low on water due to the hardy having a relatively small amount of water above the firebox. Could have overheated.
That's possible. There was a gauge of some sorts on the back that was partially melted?
I am looking at the Ridgewood stoves.

They are fixing it under warranty. He has to take it to the dealer and Hardy is picking it up. Then all he has to do is pay freight.

No, I didn't think of taking pics. Its not from freezing, he had plenty of antifreeze in it, also the metal sunk in.
He said that Hardy told him its probably from too much salt in his water, and there was dried salt on the top were I could tell water had been laying.
My concern is if it can do this after one year, is this stove worth buying? When he gets it back it will be essentially a new stove.
Another question is the warranty transferable?

Hardy / 1 year old Hardy cracked water jacket?
« on: March 11, 2014, 03:39:21 PM »
Hi all. Just signed up looking for info.
I am searching for OWB cause propane is killing me. I have a very limited budget, so I have been looking for a used unit. I found a Hardy H5 that was built in Oct 12. The guy was real nice and accepted my offer of $3000, that was all I had. This included 40' of insulated pex, pumps, ect. All I would need is a heat exchanger for the furnace.
So needless to say I was super excited. I don't really know much about the different brands but have heard of Hardy and knew they were a high end brand.
So Sunday I went to get it. When we took the cover off to make loading easier is when I noticed the cracking. The water jacket around the chimney is cracked. On one side it is all busted up and sagging, and the other is just spider web cracks.
This was very troubling. I left without the stove. The owner called Hardy and they said they'll fix it but he will have to pay freight, and I will have a hard time covering that.
My worry is, how did this crack that badly after only one year of use? This unit was used for garage heat only and not burnt all the time?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.
