« on: January 24, 2014, 07:58:35 AM »
I guess everyone has a opinion on this subject.but I draw off the top because of like your said if a line blew it wouldn't burn up my fire box also the mass of my water is at the top of my boiler. Just my 2 cents

Damn I going to build a burner to add on to my existing wood boiler. But It is going to be a biomass and burn grass leaves and best of all horse crap.lol I know a guy that has one he burns cow crap in but his is a bigger scale he heats two glass greenhouses with his saving him 9000.00 a month in heating costs. Keep up the good work I want to see more.

There are so many variables to why you are burning so much wood. How much water dose the boiler hold,is the unit insulated good also is the underground pex insulated. I would prob have the damper on my blower and have that all hooked to the aqua stat. The door leak prob dosent help also.

make sure you use a good pipe because when it burns out if it is thin it will distroy it i know this first hand. As for the log lifter i think i saw a pretty neat one on youtube a guy built.
