Ok, didn't know if that was specific to the boiler or something universal.@Marshy I don't know if anybody else offers it but the version I have is for Central boiler and is distributed by them.

once a day and t stat is set at 70 in the houseHey how many time a day do you load your OWB....
What do you keep your thermostat at???
Nice....once a day and t stat is set at 70 in the house
no i do not heat my hot water. I plan on heating my shop next winter with the boiler though. I should have ran a line to the shop before the ground froze this year.Nice....
I load mine 2-times a day....been brutally cold in Indiana here we’re I live....
Do you heat your hot water with you stove too???
How long did your empyre boiler last.....did you like the empyre???As others have said, if your heat load is large enough and you can get free wood, it's a no brainer to run a boiler. Running natural gas, I would be approximately $1000 a month to heat house, shop, and dhw. With a gasser IWB, I burn about 20 cords per heating season for a total of ~7800sqft. I get my wood for free, just the labor and fuel to get it.
I'd strongly recommend looking at the heatmaster ss gasser boilers. I was turned onto them by a member here and I'm going to install a G200 place of my failing empyre boiler this summer.
I don’t know if anyone told you, but it is extremely easy to put the heat exchanger in for the hot water....you put it in mine in front of your furnace heat exchanger.....no i do not heat my hot water.

I'm on the 3rd heating season now. Repaired a crack in the firebox last spring and now I seem to have a leak at the back left corner of the firebox. Other than the leaks and not having a large enough firebox for my heat load to make 8 hours when it's below 10F, I really like it. It runs very smooth and burns cleanly. Cleaning flue tubes every other week is one thing I won't miss going to the Heatmaster though.How long did your empyre boiler last.....did you like the empyre???
They should be fixing that, that is absolutely ridiculous.....cracked firebox is catostaphic failure....I'm on the 3rd heating season now.

Profab folded almost 2 years ago, so the 25 year warranty means squat now.They should be fixing that, that is absolutely ridiculous.....cracked firebox is catostaphic failure....
Did you treat your water and everything???
Damn that’s ridiculous!!!!Profab folded almost 2 years ago, so the 25 year warranty means squat now.
Water is treated and in spec.
