Hello all--

Ordered an Econoburn 150, slated for delivery in mid-July. I'll still need to scheme up my storage (as big as possible and as affordable as possible while still fitting down through a 4 foot wide Bilco bulkhead into an old farmhouse cellar) & connections to warm air duct heating system, so I welcome any and all suggestions.

Storage: The first thing you have to decide is will it be pressurized or not. Each has its advantages. You will like the Econoburn. It's a good solid unit with excellent factory support.
 
Thanks Heaterman- some of the factors on pressurized or non-pressurized will probably boil down to what I can scare up for tanks, and at what price. I like the aspect in which pressurized will let me skip some costly and/or complex additional coils, flat plate exchangers &/or a couple extra circulator pumps-- and seemingly get better benefits of stratification. On the other hand, if I can find/build a suitable non-pressurized tank at a modest cost, it might justify paying for and fooling with the extra exchangers/circulators.
