Nice

That's a hell of a stove dude. My buddy hooked his into his pool also so he can swim year around, lmao. Might as well do something with that heat when your not heating your home eh? He put an extra valve in it so he can turn the pool off and on depending on the weather.

[North Wood]

yes its a used

bought it from Kieth at northland this summer with a warranty.

he said it is one of the earlier models that was made in Wisconsin

all the same features just a little different setup

 

[North Wood]

I lust wanted to take a moment to say that northland dist. the makers of the crown royal stoves have been great. every question gets prompt attension and they know there stuff helped with the install greatly.

isint wonderful to find a good dealer that is helpful after the sale

 

[ghitch75]

Soap it up first dude, it slides a lot easier through there. Don't use oil, just plain dish soap and a little water buddy. Myself, I take a squirt bottle with about 4 ounces of detergent and the rest water, then I squirt the he11 out of it. Makes your job a WHOLE lot easier...

 

[laynes69]

A little over-kill for the house huh? Are you going to install into any other buildings? Pics look good.

 

[North Wood]

[Butch(OH)]

[North Wood]

no kidding and the wife will move out on me

:biggrinbounce2:

come to think of it mabe i should hod off on finishing it for just a little while:monkey:

naw i think i better get it done :blush:

 

[Ekka]

OK, I'll admit it ....


.... I never seen anything like that, how about some inside pics of that thing.

What does it do and what is running around the place in the pipes??? Hot water? Like what have you been doing for hot water up till now?

And how long does the wood last? ... like you gotta go all the way down there in the freezing cold every 4 hours or something????

I'm intigued with these lengths you Yanks go to with all this wood burning heating boiler stuff .... we're into airconditioners and fans here, dont even use a heater in winter.

Are you in the Arrowhead part of MN? Doesn't look like the country I live in(NW corner). I like the idea of heating the swimming pool!

Hey northwood, where you at in MN. Me and my family are from the Duluth area, actually about 1/2 hour north of Duluth near Two Harbors. Just installed a Heat Master outdoor boiler a month ago, and it works sweet. Looks like a nice install you have going there I'm sure you will love it. Nice to see someone else from MN on this site.
