New Utube Videos are poping up as the heating sesson winding down
Search Utube under Convert your pellet stove
To see part one and part two
Also I seen the first brand new 1 millon btu hot air pellet stove from WOODMASTER BIO MAX yesterday .IT burns 114 pounds or so per hr. IT well work very nice in poulty barns etc.I can not wait to build a kit for it Then they could heat the floor and the air to help get ride of the moisture .Because bird do not pee and the floors are ussally wet.This will improve the growth rate and help with not so much amonia in the air etc .I would think it will also help with the lost of birds dieing

Sorry for these bully's I understand why you do not reply .They were really hard on me when first got on the old I Burn corn.com forum. and over seventeen thousand visited my thead
They are however eating some crow as more and more people are posting testimonials on this forum and others

I recently purchased a kit from Tommy for my Countryside Magnum I picked up off Craigslist. I built a 40 x 64 (with 16' side walls) pole shed 7 years ago planing to make a nice shop someday. 3 years ago I finished it off and installed tubing in the cement for a heated floor. Initially I heated it with a Big E pellet stove (purchased at Fleet Farm), just to take the chill off but always wanted to get the floor going. Was thinking of going with geothermal but when I saw this boiler on Craigslist I thought this would be a lot cheaper than geothermal. Tommy wasn't building kits yet for the Big E so I picked up the Countryside. Currently I'm running the stove on 3 and using about a bag of pellets a day and the shop is around 60 degrees, plenty warm when you are working on stuff. I've include a picture of my setup. I did all the work myself. I already had the 6gal water heater, purchased the panel on the wall from Menards because it was already complete. So far I really like it. I should mention I live in Minnesota so to heat a shop that big on a bag of pellets ($3.50 a bag on sale at Menards) is pretty remarkable.

Here is a Harman Dealer in Prescott AZ .He should be able to answer your ?'

I heat water with a 5500 check out crosslink conversions.com they have one

ONLY HAVE THE ONE NEW PC-45 HARMAN LEFT WILL SELL WITH OR WITH OUT THE BOILER KIT.STOVE ONLY $3000.00 IT'S HAS NEVER BEEN BURNT

THIS IS NOT ME ON THE VIDEO OR MY VIDEO IT IS FROM A privet party . I AM LETTING PEOPLE KNOW IT IS NOT ME
tommy

There is now a very good detailed Utube Video of one of the Crosslink Conversions reto fitting boiler kits In a 45k stove in the basement heating all three levels of a 3,000 sq.ft home in Mn. With a 150,000 BTU water to air plentum forced air heat exchanger and there demistic hot water at the same time.
go to utube and look for Crosslink Conversions.It's worth seeing

ASK Rona He rebuilds them

I have found that the best stoves are your name brands. the box stoves are cheaper for alot of reasons. How ever it is the stove that fits my needs and I understand my self how it works and if it is not running to my satifaction I will now it right away and fix it my self or if your not into fixing ,Than it's all ways nicer to have dealer as a close friend. Not to fun having a red tractor in a green town when you need parts etc.

Try cleaning the esp probe with windex and or the feed slider could have some finds built up under it then it does not move back and forth as far as it should droping enought pellets for the air to fuel mixture to be balanced out the esp probe will sence something is not right and set the stove into a 6 blink mode Also you may ask the harman tec's on there face book page at www.facebook.com/HarmanStoves

Had this happen to me twice Did you happen to oil down your auger for not to rust up for the summer ? And anoter time the brass bushing on the top of the auger got rusty so when I pulled out the auger I cleaned the bushing and added some anti seize on it and all went back to normaly.

Well winter is back and kits have been selling very well Glad to see all the new people looking at burning pellet stoves and now with heating there homes alot better and cheaper.I have read alot off neg about The harman dealers not helping buy giving out more info on how to trouble shoot their stoves .Well Harman has a Face book now where you get answer's from there tec's mostly from PM's how ever If you do not tell them ( Harman )who the bad dealers are the can not set them straight

Easy Installation
by akultra » September 19th, 2011, 5:24 am

I recently received the conversion kit for my p61A harman. I was amazed how easy it was to install. The instructions were easy to read and everything fit exactly as it was suppose to. While in operation the kit prduces a constant 160 degrees and heat my household water with ease. I am anxiously awaiting the cold days of winter to really put this unit to the test. More to come...akultra

I purchased a kit two years ago (or 3) time flys. I had someone install it for me. I remember they said it was very straight foreward. I love mine saving lots of money!!!!! I have a uncle in Colorado that is very interested in buying one. I'm just curious where your located and how long it took to ship??? Also how it was shipped because my kit was pretty heavy.

My old system was basically hot water baseboard throught out the house. A propane furnace was used to heat all three levels. Very expensive. Last year we purchase the Harman pellet stove and placed it on the second level. I heat the top two level very well however we still relied on propane to heat the first level. This year we added the Crosslinks conversion kit and plumbed it directly into the exsisting hot water system. So far it has been running like a champ. Hoping to save considerably during this northern Vermont winter.akultra

TESTIMONIAL'S


Re: Savings

Ok - since my 'test' post worked here we go again...
I have been a dealer of corn/wood pellet and wood stoves for 9 years. It's nice to have a St. Croix Auburn stove to heat my 1920's rustic showroom building (2x4 walls and not well insulated). And at the same time I am heating the infloor heat and domestic hot water in a new addition ( approx 1,000 sqft).
When I hooked up the Crosslink system to my Auburn (in 2009/2010, I was already heating with my outside wood boiler. All I had to do was add two bypasses, a pump, some pex and a hand full of fittings to my lines from my infloor set up to mix with my heated water from the Auburn. My storage tank is an old cast iron baseboard heater (approx 12' and 200 lbs) that holds around ten gallons of water. I did have to insulate this baseboard (this is in the old building), it put out way too much heat in the same room as the Auburn. I shoot for a temp of 115* into the floor and then I get 100* out by using an aquastat on the cold water return, it regulates the stove's settings up and down. With the Auburn raising the return water temp up an additional 25* or so, it works very well for us.
When I want to burn my Bixby or Cumberland stoves, I'll shut the Auburn down and turn the valves to heat my infloor and domestic with the outside wood boiler again.
Thanks - Dan - owner of Wood's Edge Alternative Heating, LLC - Glencoe, Mn - www.woodsedge.us
p.s. If you would like to ask me questions, please do not expect an immediate response, as I do not know how to run a computer and so my wife needs to run it for me. Also with farming, cattle and a cement business I do not have a lot of spare time....woodsedge

I took a trip up to Minnesota in March of 2010 to see some working heating systems using Tommy's kit. After seeing them work and how satisfied his customers were, I purchased one myself for my St. Croix Auburn stove. I am heating my domestic hot water as well as running a water to air heat exchanger in my in my forced air furnace. I used it this winter supplemeted with a pellet stove that had to use very little fuel since Tommy's kit took care of 90% of the heating of an old two story farm house in Northern Illinois. With the system set up in my basement so I have the added protection from pipes freezing. I was able to get heat throughout all parts of the house, which I couldn't have done with the corn stove alone and 'bonus', domestic hot water without paying for propane. I have saved approximately $1,000 a year on propane. This is my first heating season using the kit and I see I will have a fast return on investment

The hot air from the stove heats our garage and the hot water heats my sons bedroom and my office which were pretty cold before. Now they are heated by Crosslinks boiler system by us adding baseboard throughout the rooms. With the stove burning the same amount of fuel that it took to just heat the garage.

HI, I have a Crosslinks system in my house working for the last two winters. I am useing a menards pellet stove, 45,000 btu's with a smaller boiler kit compared to what Tommy is selling now. I have a 3500 sq ft home that it heats, the stove runs on 3 out of 4 but it keeps us warm all winter. I also have 7 kids in my house, we heat our hot water with the system, granted it dosent heat all the water we use but it does help. When I put the system in I was useing $5-600 of propane a month and now I use no propane and it costs me around $270???? in pellets depending on temps which is a $2-300 savings which I really am happy about. I have paid for my system in the first year.............. Yes, I like it....

and alot more INFO ON MY FORUM FOR YOU ALL TO READ OR JOIN IN ON
