Title: Newbie getting ready to buy stove
Post by: sammy on March 10, 2009, 05:28:07 AM

Hey Folks,
I'm new to the site but was hoping to get some pointers in the next few weeks.  Going with an OWB to heat house, water, and pool.  I have narrowed my choice of stoves down to 3 and was hoping anyone with info could light in on this.  I'm looking at the Central boiler 6048, the Central boiler E Classic 2300, and another brand named Crown Royal 7400.  The Crown Royal dealer is less than a half mile from my house so it may be a wise choice to go with him although the stove is pricey but seems to be a good stove.  Anybody on here ever run the CB 6048 and then go with the E classic.  Just wandering if the E classic is worth the extra money.  I have read other places that it will not readily burn big logs and has a fire brick problem and creosotes up bad.  However, I would like to go with this newer version of stove if it will work.  Any thoughts would be appreciated,
