Hey Slim
I just recently bought my bl2840. (working on the install now ). You are a big reason i bought the stove. Was it the only reason i decided to buy the stove, no. The reputation of the stoves and research i did before making my choice. (a good chunck of the research came from your posts by the way). But your presence here and the quick response to every question almost every person posts is what tipped the scales in favor of the BL2840. This forum is the best sales tool if you ask me.
Tell your bosses to ask who convinced them to buy a portage and main stove I'm sure more than a few will mention you and this forum.

We are a family of 5 so i think we wouldn't have a problem with the use of our hot water. I have also read on there forums of using a 20 plate like an on demand water heater. Which is the better way to do it?

Finished building my house finally. Now its time to get my OWB and get it setup. I have a few questions though.
I have decided a long time ago to buy the BL2840 and i have talked with Rory at P&M but also talked with a Dealer about 2 hours away from me. Wondering if anyone has found any benefit to dealing with head office rather than a local dealer. The other question i am wondering is why head office didn't tell me there was a dealer fairly close to me.
So i have a 2 story house about 1950 square feet above ground and 850 square foot basement. Main floor and 2nd floor are well insulated R22 and R60 in the attic. And the basement is ICF bloc so its pretty good to.
My wife did not like the idea of raddiant floor heat (not sure why) so i have duct work installed and an Electric furnace for an air handler. I purchased an HTL18x20 Water to Air Heat Exchanger and it is installed in the plenum.
My stove is going to be about 100' from the house and i will run some 1" logster about a 18" underground from the stove to the house.
This is kinda the setup i had in mind : http://media.wix.com/ugd/61224a_815f12f5b7ed26a24492ae0e98dd8931.pdf
So questions i have are.
1. I want to heat my domestic hot water and i planned on using a plate exchanger but not sure what size i would need? i have a 60 gal electric hot water tank.
2. What size circulation pump should i use and what kind would you recommend?
3. What else will i need?
Any help would be great

Portage & Main / looking to buy a bl2840
« on: March 24, 2014, 06:20:50 AM »
Hi all
New to these forums, my uncle passed me the link. I am building a new house outside of ottawa ontario. I am looking for a dealer for portage and main in my area if there is one. Also for people that have purchased a bl2840 are you happy with it? Are there any issues that have come up that you would have changed in your install? Any information would be great.
Thanks
