I’m always looking forward to your wood boiler videos! Great job!
Glad you enjoy!
Really like the wood boiler videos!
Well sit back and enjoy we have a ton coming up!
Fired up my fire place yesterday for the first time. Can't wait for wood heat season!
Oh yes!
Time to enjoy the aaahhhhh! Definitely a great feeling.
Fruit of your labor!
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year!”
I actually really missed mine too. Love the smell and ‘free’ heat. Just heard propane is going up 300% here in Canada
Nuts
Yeah I heard the same thing! Crazy! Glad to be on wood heat!
Hard to believe its that time of year already! I really get fired up at this time of year!! Ill be firing mine up this weekend at the latest! Heating season is here!!
Oh yes! Best time! Loving every second of it!
Love it! We haven’t started burning here yet, but it’ll be soon
Oh yes!
Yes i what see more your wood stove video this was really cool video this was nice fire you did this was cool god bless too you guys love your video buddy 🔥
Thanks buddy!
awesome man
Thanks buddy!
Good stuff. We started a few weeks ago.
Good stuff! Best time of year!
Thanks nice videos
Most welcome
Cool video , not to many folks have boilers here in the upstate of SC .
Yeah they seem to be more popular in areas with really cold winters. Hows the average winter down there?
We usually get lows of 30’s upper 20’s most of the time . Sometimes we can get into the teens but usually only for a few nights .
YES 😉👌 OUTSTANDING ( FIRE IN THE HOLE SIR ) 👌😉👍 Full watch mon ami Cheers 👍😉👌🍻
Thanks Dave!
@@HomesteadJay 😉👌🍻
We have had a couple fires in the wood stove. But not quite cold enough to turn on the heat yet. But as usual, I'm still running my boiler for my DHW all summer. Good video! But I did I see a thermostat inside a cupboard? What's up with that?
Thats a great question lol it was there was we moved in haha it controls the kitchen zone! Thanks for tuning in Derek!
Making me want to fire mine up
Do it up!
Man makes fire. My stove is not my main source of heat but some days that's all we use. I love burning 🪵 🔥
Oh yes! good stuff!
I turn my circ pumps on mid Sept., another guy I know never shuts his off...I don't open / close valves , and I missed what that switch you turned on inside by the plumbing was for ?
I love my Classic boiler too Jay...they are beautiful ( Yet simple) machines aren't they ..
Hey pat! That switch was for the heat exchanger pump. The pump that circulates the house water through the heat exchanger. There’s one pump that circulates the boiler water and a second on the domestic side that circulates domestic water through heat exchanger
I like making log fires
Fire is an amazing tool!
Hey man nice videos! I have a central boiler and I feel like mine isn’t getting enough air. I open the door and smoke comes out and the fire is just about out. It picks back up from the air hitting it from the door being open. Any tips? Thanks!
You may be opening the door when its not running! These machines cycle meaning they run for a bit then choke out the fire and open up again once they need to heat the water up again. Generally 175-185 heat range. Its like any other heat source. It will run to get water up to temp, then sit idle, then re ignite the fire when it calls for more heat. Hope that makes sense!
Can you show a video of pulling ash out from firebox and how often do you do that? Thanks in advance and God Bless
I sure can! Stay tuned
What parts have you replaced in those 7 years? I get to start my new 5036 tomorrow. First time with a boiler.
I luckily have no changed many. I changed the damper door and the door gasket! That’s about it. It wouldn’t hurt to have a solenoid, circulatory pump, and door gasket on hand! Those are gonna be your 3 main potential fail points
Where did you get the rake you use to move the wood around inside the unit?
It came with the unit from the central boiler factory!
Do you sift out the nails and keep them?
I will address that in a future video!
How often do you clean your unit out? Thanks
Depends how much pine versus hardwood I burn
I was thinking about getting a cl 6048 myself there are alot of money now
Hey James! It’s like anything now people have to get the EPA gasification certified stoves which are more picky so classics go up in value. Same thing with modern diesel trucks with DEF systems. No one wants that BS so the older non def diesels go up in value!
Any reason you don’t use a gasification boiler?
Hey Warren! This came with the homestead so I am running it till it fails
Wonder how a hay bale wood burn ? Any thoughts
I wonder! Ive seen bail burners but idk how it would do in this machine!
@@HomesteadJay looks like ya need a blower but wonder if ya can get away without it if ya mix it in with wood
I just picked up a used 5036 but not I stalling it till this coming spring. Also looked at gasification boilers after this one dies and the polar looks to be the best choice in my opinion.
@@jesseferguson9464 Im not familair with the polars, not even sure who makes them. I know the HDX series from central boiler is a top rated gasser for sure
Jay - just installed a new heat system at my place, non gasser wood boiler and hydronic baseboards, with sidearm heat exchanger for potable water heater…
I’m having trouble getting the boiler water to get up to temp, the house is heating up, but the damper is always open, and the water stays around 140 degrees..
I came back to this old video because I remember you saying to get the water to temp, then turn the pump on after water is fully heated. Do you think this could be my problem?
Colin,
What model machine? Regardless of your in home heating system, the boiler should run the same. The boiler doesnt care how the heat is pulled off the system. 1. thing that stood out to me is Its impossible for the damper to be open all the time and have the water stay at 140. If you damper was open all the time youd have a run away fire and that water would be prob 200 degrees (ask me how I found that out).
"Normally" You get the water up to about 140-150 THEN you circulate it into the house and it should be operating between 170-180 or 175-180 degree. Please reply with the model too so I can help you more.
@@HomesteadJay Jay thanks for the reply!!
Its an Empyre/Cozeburn cpw 250 (2001)
It doesnt have a blower fan or anything, similar to your machine I believe..
As far as I can tell, the fire has been burning for nearly a week now and the damper door has remained open, while the temp has stayed below the shut off temp (set at 165 right now). When i dial back the target heat on the boiler to around 140, the damper door shuts, so I know that is functioning properly.
It seems like the fire dies down too much when I shut the door, regardless of the damper door being open. I even tried adding another 3ft of insulated chimney pipe to improve drafting.
Hmmmm seems like the same "idea" as mine just smaller. I dont know how it works necessarily but i cant wrap my head around why its acting like it is. Is the ash pan full? Something seems to be choking it out if its lingering at 140 with damper open constantly...
They all seem to have an ash pan? Is yours full? That could throttle it down
the ash pan is mostly empty. I will try to clean it out tomorrow, and clean out the ashes from inside the firebox. Im also going to try to split everything i put in the stove- just burning rounds right now, mostly birch. My fuel might not be as dry as i thought.
Thank you for your help, and thanks for the vids

No need to cut pallets to start a fire just throw in some seasoned wood and light with a weed burner, Instant Fire in 5 minutes
True but I have access to a lot of pallets might as well use them! Free heat lol
Great video I started my indoor stove last week burn a lot pallets too free heat
Can anyone help a new owner of a hardy wood stove (that’s been working fine) but all of the sudden is blowing cold air out of my vents? Help! :,(
Check make sure your circulator pump is running. Thats the pump on the unit that moves water into the house. if you have no flow inside then your forced hot air will be blowing cold air! Try that first and let me know.
@@HomesteadJay hi jay. Turns out the water had cooled down because we had a warm weekend in NC and the wood was just smoldering. It just needed to be heated back up again. Thanks! I’m watching some of your other videos to familiarize myself more with how to utilize this stove.
@@tiffanypuckett9809 Yes they are all different so take all my info with a grain of salt. Your manufacturer might call for other methods and such but for the most part most NON gasification units behave the same way!
2021 not 2022 yet buddy
Living in the future lol
Why bother unplugging the pump if you have a valves bypassing the heat exchanger? Just run the pump as you heat it up and do the last piece inside once you are happy with the water temp.
There’s no reason to run 52 degree water through the home. Heating the 400 gallons first and pumping into home after its warm brings the least amount of condensation into the home. This is how CB recommends doing it.
@@HomesteadJay Your heat exchanger is isolated until you open up those valves to your oil furnace. I think you are just making more work for yourself in your startup. Until you open that valve to your oil furnace you are not pulling any heat out of the house.
Yes you are correct but there is no reason to run very cold water through the heat exchanger even though it’s not connected I get what you mean.
I get what you mean. I can run the circ pump as it’s heating up but keep it isolated. I was told from CB to heat up machine to full temp before circulating as to not introduce cold outside temp water through the heat exchanger
