Initial Conference Call Date

Please describe your overall goals and Objectives for this outdoor boiler system.

Outdoor Boiler Brand/Model (already purchased or planning to purchase): Brand:

Model of your Outdoor Wood Boiler/Furnace

Do you have a chimney cap?

Yes

If no, what is the inside diameter of your chimney??

Do you have a chimney extension for your boiler?

Yes

If no, still what is the inside diameter of your chimney?

Do you have water treatment for your outdoor boiler?

Yes

(Read this article HERE regarding why water treatment is essential.)

Size of Outdoor Boiler: BTUs

Size of Outdoor Boiler: Gallons

How many Buildings to be heated? (more details needed below)

Underground Insulated PEX Needed: _______ ft.

Did you purchase an Underground Insulated PEX already?

Yes

# End Caps Needed (Just indicate the number if you already purchased) Every open piece of underground insulated PEX needs to be covered with an end cap. If you send hot water from the outdoor boiler to a house, and from the outdoor boiler in a different direction to a workshop, you would answer “4” end caps needed.

Will insulated PEX need to pass under any driveways? (If yes, see special instructions included in your customized design.)

Yes

Is the system pressurized? (If so, the O2 Barrier PEX Pipe is usually preferred)

Yes

Please attach a hand-drawn drawing of your desired system. Just show where boiler sits in reference to home, barn, pool or other structures to be heated. NOT TO SCALE. Just a simple layout. (If you can't upload here, kindly send to [email protected])

PDF, DOC/DOCX, XLS/CSV, JPG/JPEG, PNG, GIF

Send also a photo of the back of the boiler where the plumbing will be connected. (If you can't upload here, kindly send to [email protected])

PDF, DOC/DOCX, XLS/CSV, JPG/JPEG, PNG, GIF

Send a photo of any pumps you already have – show the whole pump, and also take a close-up photo of the name plate of the pump showing the model number. (If you can't upload here, kindly send to [email protected])

Heating System Type in building? (Options include Forced Air, Indoor Boiler, In-floor Radiant, Baseboard Radiant. Note that if the source is in-floor radiant or the load is excessive such as for a pool, a TLV kit will need to be in the specifications.

(Read HEREto learn why a TLV kit is needed.)

BTU Capacity/Size of heating system (what is the size of your indoor furnace in BTUs for example, if known):

Is the heating system an indoor boiler? These are commonly used with baseboard radiant heating, for example)? If so, an Indoor Boiler Interface Kit will be included with your design.

Yes

If the source of heat is forced air with duct work, what size heat exchanger will fit in your furnace plenum (circle one)5) Review standard water to air heat exchanger sizes at this link: . Identify which size is needed – PLEASE FOCUS ON DIMENSIONS “A” and “B” only.

1) 16x18

2) 18x18

3) 20x20

4) 24x24

If you want to heat this building with a hanging "Unit Heater" (not for use in residence), we will specify the proper size needed from these options (or combination thereof).

1) 50k BTU

2) 100k BTU

3) 150k BTU

4) 200k BTU

(See this article for sizing formula HERE .)

Do you have fittings needed to connect the above heat exchanger to your heating system?

Yes

One filter kit is mandatory for every outdoor boiler. It is generally installed in the basement of the home where it can be monitored and cleaned regularly. Do you have a high-flow, high-temp spindown filter for this purpose? Yes / No (If no, we will include customized drawings to install.)

Yes

Do you want to heat the domestic hot water for this building?

Yes

Outdoor Boilers must be kept completely full of water – this is mandatory. This can be accomplished either the hard way (with buckets or a hose), or the easy way (our proprietary “Fill Kit”). A “Fill Kit” is optional but highly recommended. Since most outdoor boilers are open to the atmosphere, the Fill Kit allows you to add water by simply opening a ball valve for a few seconds each month to top off the boiler. Do you have fittings to connect the outdoor boiler to this building?(If not, we will design a complete fittings kit for you.)

Yes

Is there another Building to be heated?

Yes

Type of Building to be heated (Building #2) (Is this a pool, frame home, pole barn, etc.)

Size of Building in square feet:

What is the average ceiling height?

Please select your insulation quality: good, fair, or poor.

Do you have fittings to connect the outdoor boiler to the insulated PEX that is connected to this building? Yes / No__ (If not, we will design a complete fittings kit for you.)

Yes

Do you have a pump to circulate water to this building (pool)?

Yes

If yes, please send photos of close-up view of pump name plate showing model #.
