example of disappearing slabs
« on: January 12, 2018, 04:41:07 AM »

Ok 12 hours high -6 low -21 f  It took 400 lbs of slabs at about 20-30 % moisture 6600 sqft heating temp inside range 50-76f
to average across the board is 63f inside . Is that about the best a outdoor boiler can do . am I in the ball park range . I been
trying different drafting on the boiler and Im finding out its a big changer how boiler burns slabs . Its like you have to guess best
drafting to wood moisture To get longer burns and keep stack temp down but high enough to keep inside warm . I betting if I have
temp sensors on the boiler at stack . It could take alot of mystery out of it . This must be what brings on the x300 temp sensor controller to see what exactly its doing .  :bag:

Stack temps will definitely tell you alot! Slabs burn hot!!! Toning the air door is definitely a must!

Stick a turkey fryer thermometer in the pipe.
