This was inspired by the posting about refractories life and replacment costs. Old fasion wood boilers seem to run for 20+ years with low maintainance, gassers seem to need repairs and replacment parts on a continueus bassis. I was thinking of building my own out of massonry or buying a gasser, but I dont know of it is worth spending 7K on a gasser and $500 a year to keep it running. My homebuilt would require yearly repairs but I can acept that. I cannot acept spending big bucks and having to do repairs. It makes me want to buy a conventional boiler.
Can peple please tell me from experience what you are spending?
