5 degree range

[Fredman]

I took my outside wood boiler from a 20 degree range and brought it to a 5 degree range and I am burning less wood and it has been great. I am in Upper Michigan and it has been well below zero in the mornings mostly lately.

Please elaborate,what temperature range are you using and how much wood are you saving.

 

[Fredman]

150 degrees and only filling once a day instead of twice a day, before I was filling full at night and half or more in the morning.

 

[Jeff S]

What would be the normal range 160 to 180?It would certainly be easier to keep water at 150 than the higher temps.How much water does your system hold?

 

[Fredman]

150 gallons

and I had it set at 160 to 180.
