SOME BOILER R & R

Post by ozone39 »

Installed a new 4" fill/clean out port on my boiler. Currently building a brick fire box so she becomes a "permanent fixture". So the clean out port is going to be needed...As well the boiler got a good scrubbing while it was torn apart....Thinking about installing some s.s spray nozzles in the top ring that will hook up to my pressure washer. Trying to make clean up a little less messy...Merry Christmas everyone....

Wow! That is cool! Very nice welding, too.

But, don't let any dogs near it. :D

It reminds me of sputnik - but that was a long time ago. The memory isn't what it was.

Looks like you've covered a few bases here Oz

Good heavens if your retirement is in jeopardy you can sell that sucker to the stainless recycling facility. What's that weigh empty?

Weighs in around 40 LBS. The only things I had to buy where the tri clamp adapters and fittings, and the stainless bowl. The rest I got out of the job site recycle bin....
