New be question
« on: April 11, 2013, 11:48:46 PM »

If I decide to get a outdoor wood boiler does it hurt if I set it up next to a woods ? Any chance setting the woods on fire ? I guess I did hear about a guy that his outdoor boiler boiled over, but tell me what you think.. Slick

PS..if you live in Michigan thats not a problem right now flooding everywhere rain rain rain  :(

I have had my central boiler for 2 yrs. now and i live in a woods. Only thing you need to watch is your hot ashes. Make sure you dont put wood in the very back because sparks can come out your smoke stack even if you have the spark arrester on it.

A lot of people live in the woods, most issues come from people dumping or shoveling hit coals out of the stove into dry leaves

This is a good question, one I was poised to ask as i get into my boiler install.  Thanks for the advice, and thanks to the O.P. for asking the question!
