i would like to use a side arm heater and a plate exchanger together,   wondering what size plate exchanger and what size sidearm would work best ?

would it depend on the amount of hot water being used ?

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Portage and Maine vs Heatmaster

« on: December 22, 2013, 03:44:31 PM »

I'm a new member to the form and wondering if a could get some opinions on OWBs.

Myself and my neighbor plan on heating two homes (2500 sqft each) plus domestic hot water and a garage (1200 sqft) .
we have the piping installed and hope to get the furnace installed this summer.

we are looking at two furnaces:

1) Portage and Maine, BL 34-44

2) HeatMasterss ,  Mf 10000e


the stoves seems similar in design with one major difference being the,

 Heatmaster is made of 409 stainless steel
 Portage and Maine is made of cold rolled carbon steel

not sure which metal or stove would be a better choice, any info would be a great help


thanks
