I have a EKO 60 that I am giving away. I truly feel this boiler owes my nothing. I had heated with it for approximately 8 years. Prior to burning wood, I was paying around $3200 per year for propane. I had an excellent wood source, a local veneer company that sold and delivered cut offs for a very reasonable price. My heating cost per year dropped to $350-$500 annually. In February 2019 my neighbor allowed me to access natural gas on his property. I was considering to continue to heat with wood on a part time basis, but I have decided to convert my boiler room and wood storage area into a workshop.
The boiler was working when I stopped burning wood, but the nozzles really need to be replaced/repaired because the refractory cement that encompasses the nozzle has deteriorated and I wasn't getting the clean burn that I once had. Other than that, everything else has always worked well.
I live in northwest lower Michigan. Whoever takes the boiler will need the appropriate equipment. The EKO was delivered on a steel pallet and the pallet remains. The boiler is still plumbed in and I will have to remove a wall to get the unit out. I can make that happen, but I will need some lead time.
