I inherited a CB 6048 with the resort I bought. It is now around 22 years old. It’s been a good stove, we heat 7500 sq ft . I added the duel fuel but the amount I have let it kick in I quickly realized I’m not rich enough to run it on propane ! Lol . I burn 20+ cords a season in northern Ontario. During the -35 we just had I filled it every 6 hrs to keep the 3 cabins and residence worm. And I must add that my dealer is Andrew @H&H and has been awesome to deal with.
@@RichardCarlson-k7w we haven’t hooked up the propane yet, we got the 6048 to reduce/eliminate our propane bill. Love it so far. Thank you for stopping by. Give the Cay a search on Google Maps you’ll see where we are. Take care. 👍🏼😎🔥🪵🇨🇦
If the damper is closed and you want to open the door, don’t just pull it open but unlatch it (keep hand on lever against roller bearings) and wait 10-20 seconds for the smoke to go up the chimney, THEN pull it open. -You can have a back draft if it recently had cycled off and you open it by pulling it open too fast. -that’s a memorable event. Enjoy the furnace. I have had a dual fuel ready 5648 at least 20 years, heating 2 houses. I only burn wood.
How's she goin'? With your easy access to wood, this type heater is the way to go, especially with a 25 year warranty!! It sure has a big firebox!! It'll be interesting how much wood you'll use this winter. Good that it has the capacity to do the house and the barn!! Take 'er easy!!
I had one, it burned 22 cords of hard wood. It was wired wrong, had a local person look at it, zero customer service, called them for three months. I used it two winters then during the following summer, I gave it away. Then bought a Heatmore, burned 7 cord of wood. Excellent customer service. Used this one for six years and sold it. Heat with propane now.
I have the same one bought in 07, I had to lower the Water temp 165/175 for the Domestic as it over heated the Safety on the Water heater Gas valve . I had 4 zone Base Board Hydronic so no mixing needed. I did install a mixing valve for domestic 140 Deg water out the tap was a bit much. My whole System was home brewed and worked very well till 2019 When the house was replaced and I moved out taking the OWB with Me, Since My new place has in-slab Heat I lowered the temp even more 145/155 I do not need mixing valves at all And since the whole system is no-pressurised I do not need Heat separation Cept for the Domestic. My flat plate for the Domestic is close to the floor to get the most out of thermocycling and do not need to run a Pump to get it going. i remove the Drain from the bottom of the Water heater tank a plumbe the whole Ckit with 3/4" parts including a Filter rated for Hot water. The Filter keeps any Crud from getting in the Flat Plate. I wired the Front Light to the Damper Ckt with a blue C7 Bulb That lets Me know when the Damper was open I also had one in the house too.. With a Rifle scope I could see the Temp on the Love controller HAHAHAHAH Can not see it at My new place. It is so nice walking in bare feet on a warm floor HAHAHAHAH.... One thing I did at My new place is raise up the OWB 1+ Cinder blocks high So I did not have to lean over to put Wood in. being 6"4+ It was a face full of Smoke now it is so much nicer.
@@m9ovich785 I love the lightbulb connected to the damper circuit. The unending hot water is great . Must have been interesting moving the boiler? Glad you stopped by. 🔥🪵👍🏼😎🌴
Good Evening To Both Of You 😇😇👌👌👍👍 Nice Husband And Wife Sense Of Humor 👍👍😇 Very Nice Central Boiler 😇😇👍👍🔥🔥Very Nice Options ( Propane and Wood ). Very Nice Informative Video and No CAN CAN Dance For You Mon Ami 🤣🤣👍👍Cheers 🍻🍻
@@MannistoCay about 50km south from Oulu. There is a place called Männistö some 8km away from our place but there's probably many of those in Finland. Means a pine forest.
@@retiredforlife63 Hi Brian, thx. We're going to experiment a bit and see what makes the most sense. We still want to use the totes so maybe 24". Cheers 👍😊🍻

Change your pump to pull off the lower line. Return at the top. Cold water sinks it will mix your tank more efficiently and lessen spot boiling
You made a great choice I absolutely love mine
We’ve been happy with ours so far. Merry Christmas 🎄
Your boiler looks great. Thanks for talking through how it works, it looks like a good system
@@GardenTractorBoy thanks , hoping for warm everywhere around the Cay! Take Care. 🇬🇧🇨🇦👍🪵🔥

I have the same boiler, bought it new in 2006. Great boiler they are. Good luck with it!

@@MannistoCay I had a medium duty Wrecker pick it up and I backed my trailer under it then just the opposite at My new Place which was only 10 Miles.
Nice Set up for sure. Hope you're doing better Mark. Great info you 2. Have a great week.
Hey Bob, we will be warm here at the Cay. Weight bearing now so moving forward. All the best. 🍻😊👍🔥🪵

But I like the Can Can, well at least when the ladies do it, LOL. Gonna be warm all around the Cay. 50% weight bearing. Getting there! 🔥🫡🪵🇨🇦🍻😊👍
What a great review & information. Thanks 😊
@@robertwiebler7470 Glad you enjoyed it, there are a couple more already and more coming out on the boiler. Thanks for coming over. 🪵🔥🌴👍🏼
Got one just like it in 2006 only not the titanium model. Mine is now in it's 19th season and I have a forced air blower burning wood only.
Definitely sounds like a good investment. Glad you made it to the Cay! 👍🏼🔥🪵🎄🌴
Looks good 👍
@@alexanderhaggie9162 thx bud
Great info👍
Thanks for watching! Have a good week. 👍😊🪵🔥
urs is nice but the 7260 the door is at the ground so u can rool the big logs in easy on ur back and walk inside of her great unit
I haven't seen one like that, my back thinks that is a good idea. Thanks for watching! Hope you subscribed. 😊👍🔥🪵
Nice set up guys
Thanks! Have a good day Kenny. 👍😊
Greetings from Finland. Your name sounds Finnish 👍
@@MF175mp Yes it is, my great grandfather moved to Thunder Bay Area in late 1800s
@MannistoCay You probably know it, but in Finland it would be written "Männistö"
@ I’ve seen it like that, I guess it’s been Canadianified if that’s a word.
Where in Finland are you from?
@@MannistoCay about 50km south from Oulu. There is a place called Männistö some 8km away from our place but there's probably many of those in Finland.

Nice upgrade. That fire is huge! Are you going to cut your firewood longer?
