You have to be one of the politest individuals I've ever ran across. And patient...especially where I'm concerned!

PWdiver,
We have some serious experimentation going on with the CB5036.  RidgeKid along with others have put some real-time monitoring equipment on their units.  Not only that, there is a group in this forum who are actually weighing their wood before loading so they can provide all of us with some pretty spectacular real life information to help all of us understand how we can optimize our units. 
Happy reading!

I heard Ridgekid is asking Santa for his own set of bathroom scales for Christmas so his wife can have her's back in the house. :thumbup:

You guys are too funny!!!

I hope your all paying attention.  I'm only doing this since it's my first winter with a OWB. Once I get my numbers I'll be set for the winters to come.

Thanks for the info, I have really enjoyed our boiler the Wife was alway's complaining about how cold the house was now she can have it as hot as she like's. Monly problem is with the door it appears to be bowed at the top & on side where the handel is, It will get real hot sometimes 212 sounds like a tea pot. Im still working with my dealer about this issue. But thanks again interesting stuff.  :)
