"We are a Hardwood Lumber Dealer in Maine, and have been using a E 250 Wood Gun® for 8 years now. We have been very happy with the service it provides. We burn all our wood scraps and paper scraps. It will burn wood no matter how big or small, dry or green. We have also been very pleased with the technical assistance and parts availabilities that Jeff has provided for us over the years. I am so pleased with the performance of the boiler that I am taking out the boiler in my home and putting in a wood gun."

"Our Alternate Heating Systems, Inc. waste oil boiler was installed in 1988. We recycle about 7,000 gallons of used oil (annually) from our fast lube business and have no cost for conventional fuel."

"Our used oil boiler paid for itself in 4 months of use. The 300,000 BTU/H boiler delivers more hot water than our existing 1MM BTU/H gas-fi water heater."

Ed Cline,

From an Eshland boiler owner (*also see note below):

"We have two Eshland wood burning boilers. One is a 250 which heats our home. The other is a 500 - it heats three large buildings on the farm. We pipe the water underground to each. We brood chicks in two of the buildings, while the other is for the washing, grading and packing of our eggs. We use this boiler five months out of the year."

"Both boilers were made of carbon steel, but the steel only lasted four years before leaking. We had them converted to stainless steel to remedy the problem. We have had these boilers over twenty years and were the first to convert them to stainless steel. We burn between sixty and eighty cords of wood annually. I recommend these boilers to anyone who wants to burn wood."

*While the Eshland Enterprises wood burner/boiler was very well-designed, it had one shortcoming that is still present in some burners/boilers on the market today - the interior (the vessel) was made of inferior carbon steel instead of stainless steel. Alternate Heating Systems realized the overall quality of the Eshland wood burner/boiler design despite this one flaw, and so constituted that all the Wood Gasification Boiler vessels be built with 1/4" 304 Stainless Steel.
