From these photos it looks like the Switzer does not use any refractory. Is that correct?

Refractory is optional with Gary Switzer (here comes the plug) and his ULTIMATE WOODBURNING SYSTEM!
Switzer's Custom Woodburning System Inc
1557 Ellis Road
Dundee, N.Y. 14837
1-607-243-8689
He's a very busy man these days and his shop and install crew consists of Gary and his son-in-law Dave.
They are honest and decent men that are worth the wait if you want a Switzer.

if you take a closer look at the pics with a fire going you'll see the refractory.
many of the pics are before installation was complete.
He builds every boiler to suit the needs of the customer with endless possibilities.
My 3 pass 1050 gal capacity is 25 tubes total.
first pass = one 9” tube with 2" thick refractory that dumps into a fire brick lined box off the rear of the boiler.
2nd pass = twelve 2” tubes from rear lined box to front box w/ steel plate (shield).
3rd pass = twelve 2” tubes back to the rear and out to flue pipe.
Heat transfer happens so fast that you can see the boiler temp gage move at the beginning of a fire until it reaches 170* at which the aquastat kicks on the mix valve for the 2 one thousand gal propane tanks.

also for all of us that depend on the net to research anything and everything, Gary is still in the dark ages and doesn't even own a cell phone never mind a website. I've tried to convince him to build a site but as he says "I'm to busy as it is".
