General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: In trouble with the township
« on: January 06, 2012, 05:04:30 PM »
Found the set back regulations for my wood burner.
Anyone know anything about firewalls. What to use what's better than what, ect. I don't want my burner 4' from the back wall or to rip down my loft. 60" clearance for the top really the sides are 6", o-well.
neighbors can't say sh1t now

Well finally had the township meeting today. No go on the wood burner, not supprised considering the fact that I didn't meet 3 of the regulations.
But the neighbor's that showed up were real a-holes. Guy who lives a way north of me says that he can hardly stand the smell when he walks out side. Guess what buddy west michigan winds never blow north, ok maybe 1 percent of the time.
Now I need to put my wood burner inside, actually 20' to the south of where it is, in my barn. Anyone know anything about getting permits for an outdoor wood boiler inside a barn. Building inspector said if I could get manufacture set back regs and what not. It is an EMPYRE unit anyone know some one there?

Thinking about the lawyer up. I hate when people try to tell me what I can do on MY property.
I will first make them prove that it is a new unit. If they can do that then I am going to look into the regulations on outdoor coal burners. If that does not work has anyone ever built a non-permanent building around a burner and called it an indoor unit?

Hey everyone,
I am new to the forum and new to wood burning although my father inlaw has been burning for 9 years.
Well here is the deal we bought a new house earlier this year that had the option of a wood burner. The wood burner that would have come with the house was 3 years old and the old owner wanted full price of a new one for that one. So I figured he could take that one and I will spend my $8500 on a brand new one. Well I have been burning for a month now and get home today and there is a not from the Zoning/Building Department. They say that the unit is not inspected, which it wasn't and not allowed in that location. Funny thing is I placed my new burner in the same locaation as the old one.
So question is what would you do in my situation and what are the options?
