This is my first firetube mod/con. Took some pictures just for fun. Mod/cons are few and far between in my line of large commercial work. This is my own boiler which will replace a toyotomi 180 boiler as my back-up.

This is a Polish manufacturer Tuchom which I suspect many brands use. Weil Mclain ECO70. Interesting to note that 100% of the materials that come in contact with flue gasses are made of polypropylene.

    It is actually an AIC heat exchanger made in Tuchom which is near Gdansk. Several US manufacturers used this model and others from AIC.

    Interesting view from the bottom of the HX. You must have removed the bottom of the cabinet as well as the condensate base/drain.
    Curious to see this job as it progresses and how it's piped as a back up system

    Yes removed the bottom of the cabinet, and the polypropylene condensate drain base.

    @Henry Yes you are correct, AIC is the manufacturer, I didn't look very carefully!
