No reason for you to take a flyer on any OWB trying to morph into a gasifer.
Plenty of tried tested & true gasers to choose from.
Let someone else be the beta tester for their next try at a miracle.
Perhaps divine intervention will occur & they will (finally) create a gaser that works (properly) doubtful given the history of failures.
Kinda like me trying to give birth...try as I might I am never going to succeed.
You see I am just not built right to accomplish that task....total design failure.....Same goes for the OWB.

I kinda thought he was dealer too. Anyone that vents as he does dont realy help. I have never slamed a brand. All know I have issues with AFB management but as far as their boilers and all others inside and some outside they work.Many have their preferd brand. Thats the great American way.ISeeDeadBTUs said:Is it just me. . .or are cloaked salesmen irritating as hell?

shagy said:Think you are doing a fine job Heaterman. Look forward to reading your post. If you are a dealer so what. You are informative. I find it interesting.I was referring to Frozen Cannuck. I dont know what can be done as far as the EPA being involved. My understanding is at this time Phase 2 is the way testing will be done and be the rule of the land. If their is a better way it should be put in place.Look forward to your new post.

Just to clear it up "one" of us is a commercial member here Shagy & it's not me. The other "one" has owned/operated an OWB for 10 years. Anytime you care to enter into a discussion on the merits of any OWB (you pick the brand & model) I would be pleased to supply 10 years of data (annual temp charts cross referenced to consumption) & recent flue gas analysis (let you know how much it pollutes) as well as full burn flue temp readings (let you know how much heat goes to atmosphere). Perhaps a discussion of the real world performance of my OWB or any other for that matter will shed some light on why I just don't see them as a viable option for anyone considering wood burning. Like I said plenty of tried & true gasifiers out there, no reason for anyone to take a flyer on any OWB trying to morph into a gaser. Like I said "total design failure".
AFA the EPA is concerned it appears they have found a formula for making themselves totally irrelevant & are sticking to it. More of our tax dollars hard at work accomplishing absolutely nothing.
Como said:I know someone who has just bought a 2300, manufacture date was Dec 2009. I do not know if they got a deal for old stock.
I do not think they realise quite how much wood they will get through. They are going to have to keep it loaded 24x7 for at least 9 months. My guess is that they would need 3 to meet peak demand.
