I Have econoburn and usually when i fire it up for the year i use my aqua stat so that my propane boiler doesn't turn on at all when boiler runs low.

my question is do i even need to do that?? for instance can i remove aqua stat and just run my boiler, if it runs out won't my propane boiler turn on when water runs low??

i'm wondering this because i don't have storage yet so like now its getting up to 50 degrees during day but does get cool at night, so was thinking of just making fire for night, then in am turning boiler off so i don't get a lot of idle time with a load of wood in it.

am i wrong??
