Well its been alittle over a year since I put the stove in and there are a couple things I would do different if I built another stove , but I'd say I'm 98% satisified with it

The burn chamber is 36"x48"
Water chamber is 48"x60"
All the flat steel is 1/2"
Water capacity is 290 gal
Dayton fan. 325cfm
Harbor freight water pump 650/hr
I insulated it with (take and rake) insulation from Menards
It is approx 1ft thick all around the stove snow and frost sets on top of it So
I think it's insulated good enough
I used just regular pex a 1" tubing I insulated them with swimming noodles I found on clearance at Walmart .25 each !!
I have a 22x25 exchanger
10 plate for the domestic hot water
The water treatment was a eBay item
I shopped around and I ended up getting most of the items on eBay

Plumbing / Harbor freight water pump
« on: January 17, 2011, 12:37:30 PM »
Last October my taco pump went out on a cold Friday afternoon and I didn't have a back up pump, so I remembered harbor freight sold a clear water pump with 1" ports (650gph) for. $33.99
I thought if it got me through the weekend I'd be good!! Well I'm still running it. I was wondering if anyone else uses this pump?? It's cheap and works great!!

When I had a hardymine would boil over on warm days I ended up taking hvac tape and sealing the opening around theclean out door opening that solved my issue!!
Take the back off the store hold a cigarette around that clean out and around the fan flapper watch where the smoke goes!!
