Jed Clampett does Ozark snowmelt

by the casual observer. Really it is a HTP Contender screwed to a pallet, wrapped in plastic to temporarily heat a front sidewalk and stairway for the stone masons.
The boiler with a 26-99 and some 1" Onix over to the manifold. I removed the condensate cup to prevent freeze up.
The builder forgot to include enough mechanical space for the snowmelt boiler. I doubt the owner will approve of this as a permanent appliance on his 3.4 mil home :)

Use your imagination oh guru of things hydronic and radiant...
I see Babe, the BLue Ox, in concrete, with four legs, and two horns made of PVC (exhaust vents) with a couple of vents coming out his nose. When its melting snow, its steaming mad with steam coming out of its horns and nostrils. You could put an electric evaporator in the body to vaporize the condensate it produces.
No bull....

Weeellllll doggies!!!
I guess only you two "pros" know what you`re talking about.
Perhaps someday we`ll all be "close" to being as versed.

Wow
That there is a genuine hoot an any, good times, can we take bets as to how long it will take for the condensate to freeze in the system and cause issues?0 -
Or you could vent out the other end of the ox. With a whoopy cushion flap for just the right sound.0 -
More BULL
and oxen and gryphons and lions, OH MY... The ideas are endless. Surely you could talk him into "commissioning" you into doing some HydronicART for him...

What about a well? Make the cond. a drain back to a tank in the bottom of well, no freezing. Could vent to house. May have problems with code in your area though.0
