Central Boiler / Considering purchase of CB system - looking for advice

« on: March 06, 2014, 05:05:38 PM »

I have two houses on the same property (3000 & 2200 SF) in NC and am considering the purchase of a CB System to heat (forced air) these homes.  As I get older, I will count on my son to continue gathering wood and taking care of the system. For that, I plan to take on the financial burden of purchasing the system.  I would also like to use the system to heat the water in both homes and potentially a 24x24 garage/work shop. 
The winters in NC are not generally that bad or that long.  I realize it might take me longer to recoup my $$, but honestly can't stand the cold air the heat pump pushes into the house...it's ridiculous - try standing in front of a heat pump vent to get warm... might as well stand in front of an open refrigerator.

Any advice on model size and 'if' my situation will allow the use of the CB would be appreciated.

Thanks!!
