General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: Looking to buy an outdoor wood boiler

« on: March 06, 2011, 09:43:04 PM »

I recently purchased an outdoor furnace and did quite a bit of research and ended up buying a Hawken 1100. I would definitely purchase one with a combustion fan though, this unit burns hot enough when heating to eliminate creasote problems, and also keeps a constant water temp. with a short burn cycle. During the winter I can easily get a 12 hr. burn time and in the spring and fall I can get 24 hrs. on a load. We are a family of 5 with a 3700 sf. home and we also use it for domestic hot water. I couldn't be happier with our choice.
