- Follow along as we show how to install a Woodmaster LT90 outdoor wood boiler with a few tips and tricks. We will trench and burry our thermoplex water lines, drill a hole in our basement wall, and also install a rain gutter line while in the process. My friend comes over to help run the John Deere Mini Excavator and I run the Kioti RX7320 as we work together to build a level pad and set the boiler. My plan to use some cement pre cast instead of pouring a slab didn’t work out the way I had hoped but it will work for now.

You're gonna love that thing. Welcome to the owb community, theyre the best most rewarding science experiment ever.
Thank you, can’t wait. Should have it up and running this weekend.
Rachel you are getting more comfortable in front of the camera. Also with your narrative! Oh and BTW as gorgeous as ever!
Yes she is! Thanks!
I've had my Hardy Outdoor boiler for 27 years now, Love outdoor boilers~
Thanks Jerry, I’ve wanted one for years.
The first steps are always the important ones on a project.
For sure! Now the question is will I actually re do it next summer or be too busy??
@@hardworkingmanoutdoorsor go with it because it works.
The Postma way , good job Heath
For sure. Thanks Eddie!
I think it looks good . I like the mini . Can’t wait to see smoke coming from the stack !! 👍🏻🇺🇸🔥
Thanks Del, me either!
Ain't friends and neighbors wonderful! Even though it didn't turn out like you had anticipated, it looks like you're getting things done. Great job y'all!
Yes they are Dennis. We’re getting there!
Super great video
Thank you!
I sure like the way you were able to install your hydronic line. We had to hand-dig ours because it was in a courtyard. Very nicely done Heath and Rachel. Have a good weekend!
Thanks, I’d still be trying to dig in the clay we have here.
I'm glad you went with the actual thermal pex over some of the other brands I've seen. Also glad to see the use of a plate tamper and backfilling in lifts 💪 ya guys know what you're doing. Gonna be sweet when you get that baby fired up!!!
Thanks Jack, can’t wait to get it up and running.
You're right, it is what it is for now. You get to use it now and that's what matters. Nice job.
Thanks Obie.
Nice job too!!
Thanks Larry!
Good video and job I think side walk will be fine.one day I hope to build a shed from my back door to the boiler. I think you will enjoy it. Both of you take care, be safe and well.
Thanks, I think we will too!
Great video of the way the boiler has to be installed!!! Rachel, you make a Wonderful Project Manager!!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks David, yes she is. Looking forward to getting it finished up.
Looks good to me! Definitely should work👍👍
Thanks Jeremiah.
Great video Heath & Rachel, informative and interesting to watch to see how a wood boiler gets installed looking forward to the finished product. Cheers you guys .👌🏻🔥🇨🇦
Thank you, I can’t wait to get it finished and fired up.
You can always cut the front ones straight and lay concrete pads across the front to stand on. Make sure you leave some slack in the lines that go from your thermo pex to the feeds on the OWB. They will expand and contract abit during start up and shut down. Use Unions for connections also. You can cover your joiner pex with the foam for water lines. they make all different sizes so you can put 2 layers on them. I made a wood box all around my base and insulated it with roxul insulation which doesn't absorb water as easy as fiberglas pink. Time to start cutting your OWB splits as long as you can fit on your splitter. I make mine 32" long, alot less cutting and stacking.
Dale, o will definitely be doing something to make the workable space in front of the boiler larger. Appreciate all of the tips! Just waiting to get the inside plumbing completed!
You're doing great so far guys. Once your brother hooks up the lines you'll be tossing boiler would in that beast.
Looking forward to it. Thanks Kenny.
We used the thermal pex when we put our boiler in, that stuff is a pain to work with but it’s definitely the best option! The pad will work out great, you can always pour one when you upgrade to a gasification boiler 😉
Thanks Tony, wish we would have left it longer on the boiler end but we’ll make it work. I’m sure I’ll be forced to upgrade eventually. That stuff is stiff for sure!
Don’t get a gasser, I got rid of mine and went back to a triple pass
Can't wait to see how well it works.
Hopefully my brother will be over soon to finish the install. He finally got his deer yesterday and that’s what he said he was waiting for.
I like my new boiler stove at least your that far along have a great weekend
Thanks David, you too!
You guys did a good job enjoy the video and you guys have a good day stay safe
Thank you! You as well.
Glad you got your outdoor stove almost hooked up cause I figure you're going to need it
Thanks Carl. We’re getting close.
Nice work guys,great video!👍🏻
Thanks James.
I've wanted to put one of these in for years !!
I understand why you didn’t film the placing the thermal pipe thru foundation. That pipe is a beast to deal with! It made us say words not in the vocabulary 😅😂
Larry, I wish we would have filmed it but my buddy needed help and Rachel was on the phone with a client. I didn’t want to hold Jason up because he was on a time crunch.
I wondered why you had it on the blocks. Makes sense for loading. Nice job! Do you rent your friend out? 😂
I’d definitely rent him out but he’s expensive lol. He’s amazing on the excavator. Especially when running his own which is not as sloppy and a little bigger.
Post and beam architectural masterpiece is next on the honey just do what I say list lol for next summer. It will be epic! Lol
That would be awesome!
I install about 3 or 4 a month, Enjoy the wood Heat, make sure you hook up to your hot water heater.
Thanks Corey, the hot water is one of the things I’m most excited about. We are thinking about burning all year just for hot water as our current water heater is electric. I have a 20 plate heat exchanger for the water.
20 plate will work just fine.
I was guessing 30 inches deep because of the cold but I’m know nothing about up north but it terrible cold weather 😊
I think the thermoplex allows it to be a little shallower.
When you pour your pad put a roof up and make it large enough to put a tote under it. Having to load those boilers in freezing rain and snow sucks. You can run a loop of PEX inside the pad when you pour it so it melts any snow that might get on it.
Thanks, that definitely sounds like a great idea!
Have wood have heat, we have a indoor hot air wood furnace it does 95 percent of our heat 5% oil hot air when needed.
For sure! We provide 90% of our heat now with our wood burning insert. This boiler will most likely become our main heat source and the insert secondary almost eliminating any need for Propane!
I would like to do that.
I’ve wanted one for years! Still some work to do but we’re getting close.
Things don’t look bad I would just throw up some 2 x 4 forms and go grab some 80 pound bags could even throw them in dry rake it and spray it with a hose 🤷🏻♂️🤣
I’ve thought about doing it myself and still may. At least it’s in place now.
Nice video. Tell. Your. I. Said. She is. Good. Looking
Thanks Ralph😊
Thank you Ralph!
Yup, that's it, you got it in place. That's what is important this year, but you guys. How much frost do you guys get like? Where's your frost line like? I know we're at here in Canada. Like not that we get it, but they say that our frostline is 4 feet deep. So I know they always tell anybody that if you're bearing in water lines that like we never get below 4 feet. The frost doesn't we definitely sometimes? Depending on the winter will get more than 2 feet. So I just question if what you guys get for your frost. Where is your frost line? But 2 feet will still. It'll never freeze because it'll always be warm. Hot water that's flowing in and it'll always be circulating. It's just the amount of heat loss anyways I know you're gonna like
Kent, I’m not sure on the frost line. I just know the guy I bought it from that installs these in this area as part of his business recommended 24”. Can’t wait to get it up and running.
42" is our frost line though in our area it seldom goes beyond 24" and in general an inch and a half of insulation equates to 18" of cover so in theory he has 42" of actual coverage, also @hardworkingmanoutdoors will be running a closed loop system with antifreeze solution I believe. He'll be just fine either way!
U don’t need to install that at the frost line. 24” is enough for thermopex or any form pipe
hi there it is only a fail if you cant fix it .looks good to me , well done
Good point John! Thanks.
What am I missing. If yall just installing used boiler now what was that line he pulled out and had to reinstall???
Far as the insulated pex goes you can hook lines to the insulated part and before you hook to boiler wrap in insulation andslip over a section of that flex drain..
Jimmie, that line was our sump pump drain line. I am going to see if I can use some of the thermoplex line that is in the basement to extend the lines up into the boiler. We left them a little short. But if not that’s a great idea! Thanks.
multi purpose trench! smart! I bet that closed pipe with cell foam helps with the frost line!
There's a guy at work who has one of those boilers. He's really [quietly] proud of it for it saves his bill! Let us how how it heats the house end. I know it's water back and forth, like a Beckett boiler. Need more info! :) Btw, All this time I thought you two were in NC! You said, Non Dot, Michigan gravel or something! ha! That's cool! Sky looks same, woods look same ha! cheers!
Thanks, yeah we are in Michigan. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how much we save on utilities. Especially on hot water as we have an electric water heater and with a family of 6 we use a lot of hot water.
Didn’t turn out bad.
No it didn’t. Room for improvement but we will get there.
I have the same one I think yours is smaller than ours.
Tyman, it may be. This was originally an AS1100 pellet burner and factory converted to the LT90 so it’s not identical to an original LT90 but similar.
Looks good. I’d put more rock around the base to level to the concrete slabs. Just to maybe make it easier to get to 🤷🏻♂️. Can’t wait for the fire up and see how it works. 👍🏻👍🏻🪵🪓🔥👋🚜
Thanks Noel, I plan on adding a few more loads of stone to do just that!
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors 👍🏻👋
If I ever had a plan that actually worked 100% I’d fall over backwards…. 😂 I’ll be curious how much your utility bill(s) go down this winter. Good thing someone kept bugging you to get saws ported since you’ll be cutting all that wood to feed that beast! (More man math). 😂
Lol for sure. The ported saws will definitely be putting in some work!
I know in the spring you will dress it up.
That is the plan. Now I just have to get it up and running.
