    Waste oil boiler to heat house?

    Yes. Checkout sewerzuk's thread for more info on the direction I went. His thread was a big reason why I got in to it. On my 3rd winter.

    heating my shop with used motor oil

    I have been experimenting a little bit with this. I have CK burners kit on my boiler and it comes with a -7. I installed a -5 to see what would happen and I found out that they both like to run at the same PSI. I have a combustion analyzer so I can keep it pretty scientific. I have since...

    Ideas needed for running this air line outlet

    Nice bike! My brother had a '00 RC51 for quite a while. I put a number of miles on it while he had it.

    Need some help designing my new home

    What part of town are you looking at? I don't know personally but you may want to look in to the limits of spancrete if you are installing a lift. Maybe it's a non issue? What are you planning on lifting? I have a 10ft ceiling and can get full lift (48") with my maxjax and a fullsize...

    MaxJax install with in-floor heat

    I purchased a lift last week through the group buy setup by UPSHIFT (thanks UPSHIFT!). It was delivered yesterday so my next step is figuring out placement and installing it. I have in-floor heat in the garage. Does anybody have any good tips on figuring out where the tubing is run? I have...

    Quality Name Brand Electric Boilers?

    I have had a Seisco for about 6 years. It has worked great. Now it's just backup though.

    Heating with waste oil - what a project

    I have run about 20 gallons of it "mixed" with the waste motor oil. It seems to settle in the bottom. It's a lighter weight oil so it ***** in more oil with the same pressure making a hotter flame. At that point you need to put the combustion analizer on it and dial everything in...

    Heating with waste oil - what a project

    Keep us posted! We have natural gas here. It's hard to argue with natural gas. It's very cost effective and basically zero maintenance. I will definitely be doing more maintenance than before but with free fuel I've for sure beat the already low cost of natural gas. No doubt if I had gone...

    Heating with waste oil - what a project

    The objective from day one was to make this system safe, heat effective, cost effective and low maintenance. Nothing against you outdoor wood boiler guys but the last thing I wanted was to have to refuel something a couple times a day. It's very easy to forget what's going on because it just...
