This video is about my wood boiler and firewood storage crates that I built. I been getting a lot of questions about my wood boiler and I just wanted to give an update to how it has been burning this year. We are half way through the heating season so a good time to show how it's going. I also wanted to show you guys my wood storage pallets that I keep my fire wood in and how I use my tractor to bring the wood into the shop. If you want to see the pumps and tubing side of the system it is in the first video I will link it to this at the end of this video.

Nice shop and boiler...looks like a beast. Can’t wait to see some more ICF builds this summer.

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Thanks Kevin. I will have several ICF builds this summer. 👍👍

Here's a comment to help your analytics. If you gotta live on a slab radiant floor is the only way to go. I'm trying (not too hard) to figure out how it would work in Georgia. Seems like circulating cool water through the slab would create a heat sink for our brutal summers and ease the load on the forced air. Seems to me the only negative would be the initial outlay, but I know nothing about HVAC.

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Thanks Bill. 👍👍 I wonder if you circulated well water from a deep drilled well through the tubing how much that would cool a house especially if the slab had insulation under it?

@BillB23 3 года назад

@@bondobuilt386 Of course you'd have to vapor seal and insulate below the slab. As you suggested, one could do like commercial sites do and use the differential of temps to both cool and heat with earth-coupled systems. One would just need a source of electricity to pump the coolant and/or the air. Hmmm? Why is this not available for residential applications?

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

@@BillB23 Thats called geothermal. There is a few of those systems around my house that are residential. I'm not sure how well they cool but I was told they heat pretty good and they supplement the heat with electric on real cold days. You can pioneer it in your area bud. 👍👍

@tommckinney3947 3 года назад

Its my understanding that when you run cold water through the floor in the summer time, you end up with condensation on the floor, Not good.

@BillB23 3 года назад

@@tommckinney3947 Thanks, Tom! Especially here in Georgia where the humidity is epic. I guess I'll have to consult an engineer because I know just enough to be dangerous.

Nice videos. These boilers are literally built like tanks. Which model is this? If the WOC 40 could do auto switchover to propane It'd be a no brainer for me.

@rodhawkins5037 3 года назад

That's a good idea just firing that thing up once a day👍. How long does that crate of wood last. Whats temp do you keep your shop at? thanks

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Rod thanks. 👍 A crate will last me 1-1/2 to 2 weeks. I keep the shop at 70 degrees. It does depend on the weather of course how long the wood lasts and the quality of the wood.

@shanek6582 3 года назад

What happens if the water temperature gets too hot in the boiler? Does it just close the dampers and smother the fire? Thanks

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Yes the dampers close and the intensity of the fire goes down. If the water reaches the boiling point it will open a presure rerlease valve and let off the pressure. The pump will also turn on and start pumping the water into the floor to try and dump the heat. That is called a dump zone. 👍😊

@chriswild9941 Месяц назад

over winter how long are you running the boiler a day ? is it economical ? we have a system in the house we bought 4 years ago very similar but feel like we cant get the balance right - do you let the system go cold over night?

Ron do you cut your own wood , or buy loads of split firewood ?

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Mario Me and my dad cut our own wood. He has close to 100 acres of woods. I try and get it all cut as soon as the woods dries up and then get it split and in the crates early so it can season all summer. I like to keep the crates in thbe sun and wind and the wood is better seasoned by winter.

@MarijuanaSoldiers 3 года назад

as a 27 year old with 10 years in random handy man work, and no clear path right now, i cant imagine how to get together enough resources to build one of these types of buildings. id love to make my home out of one of these, but between land, and all the associated costs, its seems like its a minimum a 50k investment, and thats probably not including so many many many factors. id love to get on with a crew like yours and learn more, any advice? id love to learn to do all this myself and work personally with a company to eventually understand the full process and hire the company i work for to do my own setup. but those are probably wild pipe dreams haha. thoughts?

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

You can do anything you set your mind to buddy. I built my first house when I was 19 years old. My dad gave me land and I busted my butt and saved every penny and just kept plugging away. I bought concrete blocks that were seconds real cheap and did my basement. I traded work with an excavation guy to dig my basemrnt and put the septic and well in. Then it took me about 5 years to finish it and I owned it free and clear. There is so many more resourses for you guys now with youtube you can research anything and do it yourself especially if you have a good group of friends. I think if you really want something and set your mind to it there is not much you can’t accomplish. If you hasve questions on anything along the way just ask bud. 👊

@patrickhague433 3 года назад

New to channel . love it so far. So you have a wood boiler. equal runs of pipe, so no need for manifold in system . can you plumb in gas water heater as a back up to the wood boiler. would love to see a video of that

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Youn do need a manifold but just a simple coper one without all the balancing valves and stuff if the tubes are the same length itv will flow evenly. 👍👍you could plumb anything as a backup to the wood with a separate aqua stat. 👍

Besides the floor radiant heat what else do you run off of it ,water heater ,driveway de-ice, spa, sauna ?

Just the heat and domestic hot water buddy.

Would you buy another Kubota tractor again?

@tommckinney3947 3 года назад

Hi Ron, one question about your setup. Your boiler runs at 160 degrees and you run it through a mixing valve to lower it to 120. How do you do that? Mix it with the return water or cold water? If you mix with cold water , how do you keep the boiler from over filling if you keep adding water to bring the temperature done?

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Tom the mixing valve steals return water that is colder and mixes it with the hot supply water. I might do a video on this I have had alot of questions about it. 👍

@scottrayhons2537 8 месяцев назад

I heard running too hot of water into your slab, that it will blow up and buckle like a hot pavement does in summer.

@beii-c4e Год назад

Do you burn pine as well ?

@mattderr1013 3 года назад

What te.p do you run the water at. I thought with radiant floor heat you aren't supposed to go over 120

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Hi Matt. The boiler runs at 150 ish but there is a mixing valve to temper it down to 100 to 120 before it goes into the floor. Check out the other video on this boiler. It shows the mixing valve. 👍😊

Is it okay to keep that next to the oil tank ?

@AJ_Lyon46 3 года назад

Hey man I bought a project farm house in the finger lakes (canandaigua) and will be adding a 40x60 shop. With your other video I see you run radiant from your shop to your house. The separate pump is on your supply line, same with shop, any issues with hot water killing the pumps quckly? I'm also very interested in what you paid for that boiler type as I have a fuel oil set up now and want to ditch it/use the oil tank for a boiler or hot water heater. I'd be burying lines and finding a spot outside my house to come in at and go in to the floors. Could be a pretty cool set up if I can wrap my head around these systems a little better. I was sold on a propane furnace untill I started digging around for radiant heat in the new shop. Shop + house will be 4750 sq ft

@AJ_Lyon46 3 года назад

Oh I do burn wood now just not totally effectively. It's in the "shop" part of my house which is quite a ways away from my living room, so the furnace will still kick on every once in a while.

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

Hi there Aj. I paid $4000 for that boiler used buddy. Kinda expensive but I really like it. Its kinda hungry but I do have alot of heated space so it saves me a crap load. I have had no poroblems with pumps. The last one in the garage was on there for 8 years and I had it on constant in the winter. The one in house is 8 years and still going but that is farther away. You will love that heated floor in your shop. I would run 6 400’ loops. You could do 8 300’ loops but much harder to keep the loops all the same length. Also you would spend more on the header. Let me know if You have any questions as you go. 👍😊

@AJ_Lyon46 3 года назад

@@bondobuilt386 thats awesome to hear, and the 4K is worth it considering the EPA doesnt allow them to sell any like that anymore. due to that i believe im going to put a on demand propane system in my house and an oil fired 50 gal for my shop. should do the trick, fingers crossed. Thanks for the response

@bondobuilt386 3 года назад

@@AJ_Lyon46 A 50 gallon water heater is a great choice for a heater. HTP Phoenix Light Duty is the best one for the money in my opinion. 96 percent officiant and stainless steel tank. It will last twice as long as a on demand. 👍😊
