Makes me wonder about poor underground line as well causing boilers to be blamed for excessive wood consumption or poor performance.
I did a small one day show yesterday, not a lot of people but mostly local and only a few miles from home. I got the wife up and going yesterday morning then came home to grind cow feed, while I was gone she had a guy that had a 10+ year old Woodmaster that he’s thinking about replacing as its really eating the wood the last few years. This is what the wife told me, first thing I thought was compromised underground line. Not sure what he’s using, but I’ve already been contacted about underground line, I give em my prices for Logstor and Performaflex XT, the one guy got back to me later saying he bought some on Ebay for less than $5/foot.
First thing I thought was “dumb*ss”, second thing that really concerns me though is he’s gonna install himself, which is no big deal if you do the research, but if he thinks for less than $5/foot he’s actually getting the good stuff, then I doubt the rest of the install is going to go well either, which in the end he’ll wind up b*tching, whining and moaning to anybody that will listen about how OWB’s don’t work, are a waste of money and eat too much wood. Which just will cost us sales in the future or is going to lead to a lot of misconceptions that will need to be educated out of people.
