This last winter we operated the shop for almost three months without heat. The shop had a 30 year old Black Gold
waste oil furnace that finally gave up the ghost. That one was a 160,000 BTU unit, so knowing at that time the
availability would be the issue I started looking at several brands. And ended up buying a Energy Logic which is the same
exact unit as the old Black Gold. Black Gold changed hands a couple of times.
Took 7 weeks to get it, ordered it without the tank and mount. I already have 4 large tanks and the mount built to wall.
Main reason I went back with same was BG and EL have always had a built in air compressor for the burner, plus this
unit the BTU was raised to 200,000. These heaters are very easy to assemble, the wiring is all ready there, came with
lift pump/all fittings, burner and blower. Took me a total of 4 hours to remove old unit and assemble/install the new.
I moved the lift pump up close instead of leaving it the way it was. Primed quickly-fired right up. Cost $7,800.00.
Just waiting on the HVAC for the double wall stack through the roof.
Will post a photo tomorrow.
