  • can we see more of this boiler

  • @Bucyruserie28W

    I'd have to re-shoot with more emphasis on it rather than the unique feeding system. The boiler heats a large house and a barn/shop. In the meantime search for boilers online and see what's out there. Great option especially if these Jackasses in Washington pass Cap and Tax.

  • Mind I ask if the Carbon produced by the broiler is any less compare to gases or oil? What about the total cost of of those woods per season or annum ? Thanks in advance.

  • bro the carbon produced from wood is the same if it decomposes or burns it dosent matter. Also wood is cheap if u live in the woods !

  • @NateFosterSR

    True all true. As per my previous response this unit consumes 25 cord a year.  It services a generous space.

  • @utubmania2009

    Carbon data for various fuels can be more accurately obtained via an online search from a reliable scientific source. In the Northeast region where we are and heating a large Home, a large Barn, a Metal and Woodworking shop it consumes about 25 cord of wood per year. I hope this helps. Cheers

see all

  • Cool but would be way cooler if you could figure out how to make that trolley thing dump the wood inside the boiler

  • i'll take one. delivered thanks.

  • looks like you need bigger logs

    the bigger the wood the longer it will burn

    you could burn large tree stumps

  • peace from mississippi.

  • @sinusgolf

    That I would have to disagree with you.

    Burning wood create same CO2 is the same absorb by plant new one.

    However, scientific forget to take into account, Burn a tree log could simply did it in one day while growth a tree took years. If one Burn 1/10 of an acre of trees in a season as fuels and heat...That's a season, a few months. The math just doesn't add up while that 1/10 acres of tree took a few years to growth which will absorb equal amount of CO2.

  • @utubmania2009 Burning wood is co2 neutral this means that if you burn a three the co2 is absorbed by the new one you plant

  • love the wood delivery system you made....great job, enjoy!!!!!!
