Slim I have not purchased a boiler if I had to buy 1 p&m def would be at the top of my list  in my opinion this site would be at a great loss without your presence you not only help p&m customers you are helpful to all  to me this is the best sales pitch p&m could ever ask for   And the time u spend at all the fairs is that not for sales?

i guess i misread the question i thought he wanted to run a copper coil in a stove without a water jacket.the only reason i answered i have played this game with my pool water running a coil over a fire  and it works great until you get the fire too hot    Copper will melt with water in it well if u have an air lock

looks like you asked a question that all these dealers dont want to give an answer to. I dont know alot but my experance with copper I would never put it into a fire box. I would use a sch 40 pipe running through the fire box insted if u want to use copper i think you would need a water jacket to keep it cool as to not over heat. but im stupid when it comes to all this so its just an opinion. the other thing i would ask is can u build one? if the answer is yes than why not

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / homemade wood bouler

« on: April 07, 2013, 09:03:39 AM »

started building my boiler. I am building a fire box 24"wide x 36" tall x 36" deep with a secondary burn at the bottom. im using 8 sch 40 tubes for exaust these pipes will run through the water. I was planning to have the fire box as part of the water chamber. But after talking to some friends I am told that the water should not touch the fire box. we are trying to maintain aprox 180 deg f water temp.with this 180 deg temp the fire box cant get hot enough for the gasification process. So I plan th have the water touching on the back of fire box and also on the bottom around the exaust pipes.than an air chamber on the sides and the top to preheat the air feeding the fire. i was thinking 1/2 -3/4" gap.  this concept sounds good. Has anyone come across this?  any input would be helpful. Thanks
