I think Tim McElwain would be able to tell you about that burner. He might have installed it.0

Time to replace it. That thing is probably 40% efficient, according to some of my Dead Men's Books.All Steamed Up, Inc.

First off, It's an old Weil Mclain. Second it is gas fired. I would put it put to pasture as stated above0

Thanks for the comments. My friend was showing a client a house and saw it, sent me a pic. Said it scared the buyer. I told her to send the pic to Weil McClain, maybe they had a museum and would come get it.
I'd be curious to see some literature on it if anyone had some.
