I love that you put it under cover. People could build an 8x8 roof structure to cover one after the big expense of buying one would seem trivial for a roof.

Love this video! Answered so many unanswered questions we had. Very knowledgeable

How you have it set up is the best!

Thanks for doing that. I’ve really been wanting to do this but now I’m sold. Looks like a really nice set up.

I like your set up a lot.

Very cool setup

Your the smartest one I have seen yet

Nicely done 👍

I’m definitely envious of your setup

Awesome set up!

Thanks for sharing. I am eventually planning on getting one of these units for outside. Will be heating three buildings close to one another.

Now this is a wood boiler! Glad you mentioned the smoke, wonder if a good exhaust fan above your boiler tools would suck that smoke right on out.

Nice setup you have. Under roof is way to go

Nice setup 👍

this is so freaking awesome 😁👍

Great video 🧬☀️🔥

Cool Beans! Nice Set up! Well Dun!!

Nice setup

Nice set up.

Great set up 👍🤙🇦🇺

Great looking set up . I would do exactly the same .

I was wondering if someone was goin to beat me to posting a video about this. Just bought a new house and our stove is going under a inclosed area like this. Nice job 👍🏻

That’s a beautiful set up everything out of the weather wood right next to the boiler easy peasy. But let me understand. Is the smoke only an issue when you open the door to refill ? If that’s the case couldn’t you mount one of those high powered fans ( like a cheap harbor freight one ) from the ceiling to blow smoke out the small door. I love how you have it all set up for snowmelt. Like I say awesome set up. 👍👍

At first I thought you were going through a lot of wood for heating a house but to also heat your shop and the concrete slab that seem not so bad. Nice setup!

Nice rig.

AWESOME!

Very nice set up with the stove in out of the elements. Your boy will likely be running it when he is your age.

We have an outside Portage and Main boiler burning coal, heating a 1900 sq ft house and a 2000 sq ft shop. I actually wish I'd have built it into a building. We didn't want to be burning wood because of the time involved in filling it. Our coal boiler is automatic. We have a 19 ft tall hopper bottom bin beside it and the coal is augered in as needed and the ash is augered out. Once a month or so I clean out the fly ash. We burn about 12 to 14 tonnes of coal a year. We start it in late October or early November and shut it off in April. Temperatures here in Saskatchewan Canada are averaging about 0 F in the winter. I might have missed it, but did you say how many cords of wood you burn in a winter?

I'm trying to decide between the heat master or the crown royal. This looks like a really nice stove.

You should throw some barn doors on those openings! Also been fighting my setup outside as well, going to be adding an enclosed cold storage over top of the stove this spring!

I commend you for purchasing an gasification unit. Much healthier for everyone, vapor verses smoke. I like your set up and thorough explanation of same. Yours & youtube channel Lumnah Acres, are the only 2 gas boilers i am aware of. There are many outside wood furnaces in my rural area over the past 30+ years. All are open air design, necessitating replacement every 10 years, then at $10 Grand each. Yours more feasible, efficient with longevity. As an old sheet metal man, give consideration to fabricating an 24 gauge galvanized hood (shaped like an welding hood) secured a few inches above the feed/cleanout doors. Vent with an 6/8 " galv., flue thru roof with open cap to alleviate smoke when opening door. Six feet should draft well, no need for damper or motor.. This should make it 100 % perfect. btw. Have been using basement wood stove most of my life. With gas model & few years younger, i would follow in your path.

I've thought about one of these for a couple years but they look like a part time job at best and full time job at worst depending on whether you can afford the extra building and/or the equipment to process your own wood if you go that route.

What type of heat coils do you have in your shop, winter temp range, etc? Like your outfit. 👍🏻👏🏻

I have a gassifier boiler made by portage and main in the walkway to my enclosed wood shed . The shed is a 24x30 calf shelter which is made out of behlen steel pannels so you can pile wood right against the walls . The shed is a shed roof style with the high part away form the stove and is put on a 2 foot pony wall so the front is 15 ft high . It will house enough wood for the winter just loosley put in there . The one thing that i had an issue with was the insurance companies won't insure the stove or building and they wanted to have me cut down the live oak trees within 50 ft of the furnace wich isn't being done unless they die . How are you with the insurance ?? But it shure is a joy to go out to feed the furnace when it is - 35C out and the wind is blowing . With nice dry wood i find that it uses alot less and there are less ashes as well . How does your stack respond to the colder weather does the cap drip down on the roof ?? I take my cap off when it gets cold enough that it doesent rain anymore just snow . I am up in manitoba canada .

Get yourself a old stove 36" draft hood, mount just above boiler door within on/off switch, turn good on when loading, no smoke easy fix.

Any feedback from insurance providers regarding preparation and installation of this equipment?

Having the boiler under cover is the only way to fly. This summer I want to build a woodshed/boiler cover so the firewood is right there. That way when it is blowing and snowing, I don't care.

Malamutes are great dogs, we have two right now

Awesome. Would love to see the plumbing end of the system.

hi there put a roof over mine over 25 years ago and have close wood maybe you have seen it , good move , john

Thanks for sharing! 👍 Do you need some Fire Alarms, CO2 Alarm, some Auto Fire Water Sprinklers and Security Cameras to keep it safer?? How do you deal with floodings and Thunder Storms for your Big Barn??

Very nice. I wanted one of these, but went with an indoor wood stove in my basement instead for now. Still may put one in later. I'll have to look back at your videos. The wood looks like you split it down fairly small for what most people use in a boiler. I'm sure it burns better and cleaner that way.

What does your insurance say about it being in this location? I want to do this with mine. A lean-to, with gravel floor. But, this concrete looks like a great idea. Easy clean up for sawdust, bark, & splitter droppings.

I have an old style n it’s outside for 14 years. The only things I deal with r proper wood amount /type to keep it from overheating when temperatures are above zero. Also challenging to start a fire if it’s windy but t g not many. All out the best investment I ever made. About 8 k counting a semi of wood n tools needed for use. I’ve saved over 30kin propane n have all the free heat I can use.

New Subscriber new. Thanks for the details planning on doing the same this year. Only difference is we are going to place the unit then build around. And yes open ended building. #slackoutdoors

Just found your channel. Why did you not turn the boiler around facing the wood and door? A few steps saved as you get older and by the door for ash removal . Put those clear plastic strip curtains on the door like at Lowes just to keep drafts down.

Nice set up. Why do you split the wood so small? I thought leaving wood large was a benefit of the boiler? Less splitting?

I wonder what insurance companies think about it? Our insurance company came out and measured how far away from walls and how our stove was piped before they would cover our house. We have a wood burning stove in our living room. Your boiler is totally different concept but just curious what they might say. I really like your setup👍👍

I have a woodstove in my basement and would love a outdoor wood boiler. I would be able to heat my shop with it as well (had a woodstove as well). The mess being contained right outside near the wood pile would be a huge pile. I would make another lean too off my shop so its under cover too. I would also get a gasification unit so it will be a few years before i can justify buying one.

Ok. Your setup is nice, but compared to that dog, it takes 2nd place. What a beautiful beast.

A nice powerhouse wall fan right beside the stove on that wall would make quick work of the smoke

Being it's so far from your house, how much heat loss to you have between the boiler and the house?

would a through fan on the wall next to the boiler help with the smoke? BTW how many SQ FT can that heat? and can you split the direction, that is, can it heat two separate buildings?

Nice, can you valve off heat to driveway when it's not needed?

I see the white casing for you’re underground..I assume it came from outdoor wood boiler I have the same for my c250

I thought it was an insurance issue that say you can’t put it inside because ur premium will increase 40%. I certainly like it and think it’s safe, but insurance will say no, no, no, you not covered if it burns your building.

Does the unit raise the temperature inside the building any? At least from the chimney pipe? What if there were doors on the building? Would the unit heat the area via radiant heat?

Why is your wood split so small.. love your setup. I have a wood boiler out door. Find using wood bigger last longer

Are these series of outdoor wood boiler certified for indoor use? I'm not sure its in the scope of certification (should say on the label). Thanks!

Are there any Pros and Cons for putting a Wood Boiler in the Basement of a house (assuming it is legal), any comments, please??

Just found you and subbed. Started my channel a year ago. Look forward to following your channel.

Where do you get your bags? Thank you in advance

Curious why do you split your wood so fine seems like a lot of extra work

The face of my boiler is in the building. Boiler itself is outside. Pretty unique setup i guess. I havent seen another.

Curious why you split your wood so small, do you also have a woodstove?

Attached garage is ideal

For my next boiler I am 100% building a shelter over mine!

How much wood would you use in a year?

Justin rhodes youtube channel has a different brand & has been having trouble with it. He's is under a shelter too. Moore family farms has one like yours

You could put an electric next on the roof to pull smoke out.

What’s the efficiency?

I hope in 23 years you will have Geo thermal plumbed in and you can leave all the chores for the young kids.

Inside the house and hot water heated radiators is cheapest.

I slid a cheap carport over my boiler

Ive seen people install a vortex fan and vent suspended right above the door so when you open it it sucks all the smoke out. Super cheap fix for smoke in the shop. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/es-Xddh6ttu7aZs.html at 32 seconds here is an example

Really zero con to have it protected inside from the elements

tell you truth i never see wood boiler inside a building like that . all wood boiler i see in my era are outside in there yard . my brother in-law have his boiler outside pass 20 years still works and still look good . i just thought all wood stove boiler are outside in your yard with no shed building around it

Government en route to regulate that out of existence too going on forever.

If you want to harvest 10 times the amount of wood and burn it. Get one

Eat Hickory

Close it in and put in an exhaust fan. No biggie.

Great system for heating the driveway. I guess in a few years it will make itself redundant with global warming.

Why don't you tell the people how much would your burning

Evidently you don't have a job because I used to sell outdoor wood furnaces and I'm going to tell you something they burn a lot of wood

that is just wastefull all of the way around. no wonder we are losing trees.

can u gauge the temperature you can have your house ?

@Heatmasterss check this guy out! Great knowledge and finally an honest review
