Also directing information as to heat input/output of the heat exchangers/modines. As long as the beat echangers can keep hp to the modines i build. I can build more modines easily.. the heat echanger a kittle tougher, so easier to start too big.

The idea is to keep the circulating pump to the water jacket of the heat exchanger going 24/7 The other idea is to save would not having to heat an area 40 by 60 by 14 when it is 10ﾟ below 0 , and to be able to heat the garage in a few hours . The idea of the heat exchanger only came after I had...

unfortunately I would have to treat 750 plus gallons of fluid... cost prohibitive

Looking to make a heat exchanger so that I can have a less than adequately antifreeze treated water (easily over 750 gallons, so very expensive) from the outdoor wood boiler constantly circulating through a water jacket, and heat an adequately treated fluid (glycol treated water) and can turn...

for those interested, its a Taylor Woodstove, http://www.taylorstove.net/taylorhomestoves.htm ...T 750 H

Thanks guys for all of your help in this... I'll keep you posted.. I don't think I'm going to have much time in the next 2 weeks between fixing my bulldozer/skidder and cutting my firewood for the rest of the winter (i leant it out, had to fix it, and got behind and will be at work almost...

How does that figure sort of aspect for time? Given being as decently sealed building??

The north 3rd of the concrete has half inch X running under the floor at what I think is 9 inches apart. I also have a forced air round radiator with a blower in the in the center. I have not been able to find out the heat output. I am probably going to take another heat exchanger/ plenum and...

By the way, the wood box is 32 inches x 32 inches x 36 inches. You can get as big of a piece of wood in there as anybody could ever lift

As to the wattage, heat only gets to the garage whatever can be transferred through a one-inch text line at 22gpm

It also heats the house

The only reason I have it on a timer, is to make sure the pipes don't freeze. I have a switch hooked up so I can either run it on a thermostat, or on the timer to keep it from freezing

R 7-10 is probably more likely... 1 1/2 inch of low grade foam

With those units and the way they are sized... what would the usual heat time be? I know they figure for it to be on constantly... not intermittent quick heatings...

Outdoor wood boiler Taylor the 750 have 165000 to 550000 btu max with 600 gallons of water in the stove itself
