Like the guys said, contact your dealer first, ask him to assist you in finding the leak, I highly doubt that it's the boiler but nobody is perfect and with the dealings that I have witnessed, if it is a bad boiler, they will take take care of it!

 :post:

That's for sure

Right on cue?  Haha

Yes folks, I did have a lot of personal stuff going on and to be honest,I didn't feel like talking stoves all the time, it put stress on all aspects of my life and although some of it lingers on things are a lot better
I Def have 0 hard feelings towards slim and look forward to hearing from him and others here

On the Guage full to empty can be as little as 15 gallons depending on the stove/model.

I'd like to hear much more about this in regards to how this came about?  If there is a leak rest assured heat master will Deft take care of you. 

Water in the ash drawer can common in certain weather/wood conditions.  But if your Guage is still floating you haven't lost that much water, leaks generally start very slowly so I'm interested in learning more about what may have happened

Wellllllll, I know I've disappeared and been MIA for a while.  Been havin a lot of stuff going on that was outside of my control but I will be on here as usual from now on offering help and answering questions for any of those in need of help! 

It doesn't matter to me if ur using a hardy, heatmaster,  central, ridgewood, whatever, the important thing is were all burning wood.  If you need help or have questions that's what it's all about!

Neal,
  Your suggestion may not have been sexual in nature, but was purposefully offensive by your design.
You are a liar if you try to convince anyone otherwise.

I suggested an another post that you and my former self have a bit in common.
The trolling and sniping that you do here and on every site that you are a member of is EXACTLY what I would have done 25 years ago.

I'm quite sure that it's not me that has "sexual repression".

I'll happily stop being your definition of "petty and resentful' if you'll agree to stop being a "Sniping Troll".

Deal???

You mean he slings this stuff elsewhere?

Oh I did forget he thought recreational snowmobiling was destroying our planet

Jab jab

Heatmor / Re: new heatmor and having huge issues

  Yes it is, while I was there I saw no TT wire or blower power wire going to the house and the only stoves I have ever seen that run there blower off a call for heat in the house would be Hardy!

they run the pump off of the thermostat in the home, they use a Honeywell aquastat for the stove blower

Unless u seen one rigged some other way

The water temperature varies in the water jacket in various areas?

oaky

Yes, in some stoves like I said I've seen it be 50 degrees

Even on stoves that have proper port placement I've still seen them have a hot spot where you could hear water boiling and display temp be 180 under a hard burn

I've also used a infrared gun when doing some trouble shooting and noticed boilers with poor design, returns at the top, or a small pump would have much cooler temps in the bottom of the boiler than the top

This causes a whole array of issues, first of all u want a balanced "hot" tank of water!  If you are running your stove at 165 and have 165 at the top where your aquastat probe is, and have 135 in the bottom or cooler, you are causing the ash line to be very cool inside the firebox which will lead to condensation of moisture into the ash and premature failure of the firebox. 

Also, don't simply assume there is no internal plumbing inside ur boiler, because on a lot of different boilers there is pipe that put the water where they want it to go.  Most returns will extend over the top of the firebox towards the front of the stove. 

28
Ive seen conventional stoves with water boiling in parts of the water and other parts 50 degrees colder!  Switched the lines around and it corrected 90% of the issue

29
Return water should come back to the top in a conventional folks, no question about it.  This creates further mixing of the water which creates a more balanced tank of water from top to bottom, equalling potential efficiency increase and added boiler protection. 

just as slim said, gassers are hottest in the bottom so returns should be there
