New to the wood boiler life, got married twice in the same year! Once to my wife and once to the OWB... I was just curious on first fill procedure.. can I fill from the return port.. being that it's the lowest point it would be pushing water through the system to the highest point. Plz advise if...

Good afternoon, I am in North Carolina and have a central boiler OWB which heats my house and three-car garage. By the time this winter is over, I will have burned approximately four tri-axle dump truck loads of logs which I estimate to be around 15 cord. This spring I would like to upgrade to...

so I’m sure this has been talked about, but here it goes. My stove is set at 165 on and 180 off for the water temp. A buddy of mine has his set at 170 on and 175 off? He says it burns less wood if you set the difference closer because the fan don’t run as long? But in my mind it has to run...

I recently installed my new to me heatmor 400 dcss. Its running to a brazed plate exchanger inmy basment to heat the water in my in house boiler baseboard system. My question is where do i fill the heatmor with water? The Heatmor manual is kind of vague. It says to hook a water source to the...

We have a Central Boiler CL 5036 and we think we are losing too much heat at return and need help troubleshooting. We have temp gauges at the boiler that measure outgoing and incoming water temp and we have noticed that when the furnace is running we are at a 40-50 degree difference (loss). I.e...

I'm new here I think this is the right area for my questions. I bought a house that was a foreclosure. It came with an OWB it's a CB5036 manufactured in 2007 sold in 2009. The stove is about 40 ft from the house and has the good insulated pex running to the house. House is FA heat with a heat...

Does anyone have a owb with a heatpump/ac set up? Most heatpump have heat strips to help them along when temps drip below freezing. My problem is I can't find any schimatics on how to wire my owb as my primary heat and allow the heatpump and strips be my auxiliary heat. As of now it looks like...
