Wood boiler applications article, by John Seigenthaler
« on: January 14, 2014, 09:17:38 AM »

This is from the Econoburn website, looks like they hired the best to do application and design criteria. Most of this info can be applied to any hydronic boiler application, parts of it or all. Its a very good read either way and not specific to any one brand. Some great pictures and diagrams with full explanations. Pressure or non pressure systems

Excellent!

I just broke down and bought this book of his:

So far, also a very good read!   :thumbup:

Yes definately a valuable resource. A must read for the hydronic tradesman. Especially with the efficiency, controls , mod cons and alternative heat sources.

This is a helpful article for those whole like to challenge themselves with troubleshooting and designs. Siegenthaler writes, "the glitch and the fix"  and there is the entire history of each issue over the years. You could even search for a problem you might be having to learn the possible causes.
