You should accurately measure temps in and out of everything the water goes in and out of. Likely starting with your underground pipes.
Hope things stay good for you. Sometimes it takes moisture a while to get into piping, so here's to that not happening.
When talking about an efficient gasser like the Garn, it isn't the size of the boiler than chews the wood, it is the heat load it's hooked to....
Also might depend on how much or what you have for electronic stuff. Some of that stuff is a lot happier with inverters. But a diesel tied to a...
Buying a used boiler can also be a gamble. Dont think I would touch one at all that has already been welded or leaks.
Especially also if you don't have a big supply of good wood all ready to go. Not sure the wood situation here.
You should be able to lay the good stuff (Thermopex or Logstor) on the ground ad get good performance, as long as it is out of harms way. Don't...
ATF in my splitter. Factory recommendation.
From what was said in the OP (just running a couple circuits in a power outage), I would just get a small 2-3000 watt inverter genny and run a...
The problem with my old one is that it was so inefficient (simple water jacket, single warped baffle between firebox and the smoke pipe) that it...
Dry wood can make creosote. No question. Making creosote can be limited by burning in an inefficient boiler that sends most of its heat up the...
Had nothing to do with it. Boiler was kept at proper operating temp with a bypass loop.
My wood was always dry. My POS old boiler still generated big creosote with it.
Good underground piping isn't cheap, and you want to use the good stuff. And make sure it's big enough. No idea what kind of distances you're...
Storage & gasification are the game changers, yup. I went from on the roof with brush 3 (or 4) times a year to haven't touched the brush or been...
Have had a 170 for a few years now. It's not a pro saw by any means, but it's a great deal. Nice & light, handles like nothing. Only thing I would...
Yup - apt to get pounded to pieces.
So where was your oiler set at out of the box?
No first hand saw experience - exactly - but I do have some with Milwaukee M18 Fuel stuff. It is all top notch stuff, and I noticed they have a...
I brought mine home on a trailer. I did end up putting bigger wheels on it, but that didn't have anything to do with road towing. I wanted a bit...
