HeatMaster / Water Pump Preferences?

« on: January 09, 2017, 07:28:52 AM »

I have the MF 5000. I was curious as to what water pump you guys are using? I am looking to buy a new pump to keep around as a backup.

What is the address that you send your water sample to for Heatmaster? I have the bottles, just no labels.

HeatMaster / Re: Steps for shutting down for the summer.

mizzou71,
how do you like your 5000?  I live in central MO and just purchased a MF 5000.  I assume you live in MO as well.  How much wood did you go through with our last winter?  Im excited to get things hooked up and start burning this fall.

I love my MF5000. I live in southwest MO. I heated my 3000 sqf home and hot water with it all winter. I just built the home, and made it pretty efficient. 2x6 exterior walls with BIB (Blown In Blanket) insulation, and R-38 in the attic. I was extremely happy with how much wood that I went through. I think it was around 5 cord. With how cold our winter was here, I felt like that was not a lot of wood. I have also had no problems with keeping my stove burning at all, besides the couple of times that I messed up and didn't get enough wood in it for the day. Or the one time that I went out to put wood in it in the morning and turned off the fan, then forgot to turn it back on for the entire day. When I got home I just (In a bit of a panic) turned the fan back on and she fired right back up.

HeatMaster / Steps for shutting down for the summer.

I have a Heatmaster 5000. What steps do you take when you shut it down for the summer? Do you leave the pump running?
