Hello everyone,
First post here and it looks like there are alot of knowledgeable people. So maybe you can offer me some advice on my situation.
I have until recently always had a wood stove. After a few years of paying the fuel bill & recently getting our new monthly payment I decided to go back to wood. I have a portable sawmill and small custom molding shop so I generate alot of wood waste that could be utilized for heat. I am thinking about buying an outside wood-boiler to hook-up in conjunction with my existing boiler. I would like something that I can move in a couple years and use it for my lumber kiln. I have plans for an addition on the house which includes a wood boiler room.
There are so many types of boilers and money is always an issue. I am looking for a well built unit. The EKO 40 136k btu is the size range that will work for my needs. Any suggestions, opinions, ideas. I see in the classified section there are some used boilers and new ones that were never installed. Never owning a wood boiler I have warranty concerns and like good customer service.
Sorry for rambling and asking so many questions.
Thanks,
JDD
