Could we get your definition of "full size", please..??? With people we have a broad range, from petite on up through fuller figured, and right on up to morbidly obese... Not quite sure where "full size" falls in relation to boilers...

Water heaters do not make good boilers... As mentioned, do a search because this question gets answered about one or more times per week...

Welcome aboard.

First post an all. Maybe you could stop by the welcome center and give us some back ground.
