I like that the machine likes to eat pine. I burn some pine in my wood stove as well down here in Alabama. I have a lot of short small fires and good dry pine gets it going in a hurry. Then switch to the hardwood so I have the coal bed to start the next fire. Take care brother.

A common misconception of burning pine is the danger of burning it indoors due to the buildup of creosote and tar in the chimney flu. Burning pine is fine as long as it is dry and the chimney is cleaned on a regular bases. It is only when people neglect cleaning the chimney regularly is when problems occur. A hot fire reduces the amount of buildup in the flu. A cooler fire has lower temperatures in the flu causing buildup on the walls regardless of the type of wood being burned. I predominantly burn hardwoods because that is what is readily available in my area, but I have family who live in an area that is very abundant in softwoods and they have been burning that inside for years without issues. So as long as you keep that fire hot, use dry seasoned wood, and get the chimney cleaned regularly, you should be perfectly fine.

I did a shot every time you said "coal bed". Great video.

Good evening Sir, Yes in deed nice looking Shed 👌😊 Great firewood pine 👌😊 Keep warm Cheers !!!

The Woodmaster is a good stove.It's an older unit 434. I've had it 18 years. I really like it.

Hey Jay!! Real man chunk of wood!! Its always nice to be able to handle and burn big chunks of wood like that!! I burn as much of that as I can!! Stay safe my friend!!

I have a Woodmaster outdoor wood burner. I've been mixing pine with some ash. Makes some good burning.

Thanks for video I have a classic boiler and burn a lot of pine because I get it free.

I have the same unit 6040 I think, I go through a lot of wood but I am heating almost 10k sq ft. and two hot waters. Burning I would guess 15-30 cords of, firewood cut off rounds ,urban pine spruce, saw mill slabs and dead standing oak trees (whole). Thanks for the video

That pine burned pretty good. I didn’t think it would last that long. Nice job 👍

I burn a lot of pine in my Mahoning non-gasification outside wood burner, especially early in the season. It doesn’t create any problems at all. I like to use it in the early season, because it does make a little creosote around the door gasket, and that helps seal it up so I don’t get any air leaks. I’ve never had a problem with pine or hemlock or spruce. Having a 4 foot firebox is nice, I love my 30x30x48” firebox. I never used to split anything, but now I do, so my wife can load the burner if she needs to. Don’t you ever get a fire flash by opening your door like that? I open mine a little and wait about 30 seconds before swinging the door open. My stove directions say to open the ash door first to prevent fire flash, but I don’t do that. The first time you lose your eyebrows, you’ll open it slowly from then on.

My stove is a 2007 4400 wood master.I live in northern vermont great stove.

Just subscribed. I have burn pine in my Hardy h2 quite often. I can load it half full at 25 degrees outside and it will burn about 14 hours. That's green and not split

We live in a pine forest. 99%pine. Burn it in my outdoor burner (central boiler cl6048) does just fine. If I had more hardwood I'd of course burn that, but I like the pine, its straight, easy to process and grows real fast. Thx

Thanks for the video Jay. I've been seriously looking at wood boilers for our 20 acre retirement property in VA. Keep up the good work. Hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving.

I have had this same unit for about 15 years and I have burnt a lot of pine through it. It does not last as long as hardwood and does not leave the coals that hardwood does. When I first got it a friend had a ton of slabs from his portable sawmill and they were free which just happened to be in my price range so I burnt a lot of them. The problem with slabs is that they are from the outer part of logs which is not as dense as the center. When I get pine from bigger trees and let it dry it lasts a lot longer. I don't know if I ever only put one piece of wood in mine.

I do not mind pine in the fire pit I also burn Aspen in the pit too. Still hard to beat Oak. Shed looks great

My favorite kind of wood is Free! And most free wood is pine. Lol

Definitely a different way to burn. I like to cut and split my wood so I can get the maximum heat value out of it. But with your boiler sitting there idling half the time, it doesn't seem you are worried about it. I burn pine in mine as well, but I make sure it is split and very dry. Then it burns great.

I have a Hardy H2 outside wood furnace. The problem is... when I try to burn pine it burns good and delivers good heat, but does not leave any coals. I have to mix it with other woods to provide a coal bed to keep the fire going all the time as if I just use pine, there's nothing there to stoke back up when the fan comes on.

There is nothing wrong with pine in a non gasification type OWB. You gotta burn what you have available to you. Some places don’t have an abundance of hardwoods. As long as you keep the unit maintained there isn’t a problem at all.

Great wood stove saves on propane and you stay warmer

Yes this was really cool buddy i like your new video you did a really good jop buddy today buddy

Load that boiler up with a mixture of pine and hardwood and it will go 24 + hrs and you won’t have to go near it. My 5036 will burn 36 hrs at 25° outdoor temp. When I load it up. Use dry pine rounds.

Ever use popple ( poplar , aspen etc.) in your boiler? We have a lot of it here in Michigan

Did you only have one supply and return coming from the boiler to heat all that

I burn nothing but soft wood slabs I pay 30$ a 4+8 bundle I use 6 bundles a season to hear a 2000 square ft house . I put wood in twice a day as I did with hard wood firewood.

I would love to get some Pine if I could get some all we have out here is Poplar I burnt mostly green Poplar last year and this year I'm going a different route burning all the Deadfall I can find the good part is it the dead fault lights easy the bad part is it disappears fast until we hit this cold snap it was working but only barely Poplar does not dry out fast in Long lengths needs two or three years and I'm learning that the hard way consider yourself very lucky with all that Pine

If you added more slabs, would the burn time last longer?

you should make a large roing fire with kndling than completly fill it up with large logs for a real hot long burn

Why not use pine? It’s cheap and readily available. Shop looks good 👍

What about the sap and creosote? We've learned our wood burner definitely likes rounds for sure but we were scared to use pine for those reasons.

I have a gasification boiler burns pine great, no smoke or creosote. I think gasifiers have an advantage when burning pine because they run so hot. Either way nothing wrong with burning it.

Pine is the best..no ash

I burn pine all the time in my central boiler. Free wood is free heat

Pine burns alright it does not nave the btu's of hardwood.
