Anybody know if the same stoker unit and grate used in their boilers is also used in their Kokers? Thanks!

Probably not, some the boilers use larger grate with a different stoker assembly (heavy duty) mechanism. Not sure on the Koker, which one it uses.

Surprised WNY that you almost had a hopper fire...are keystoker kokers succeptable to these also? Hope all is ok on your end, did you have to shut down the fire completely and empty the hopper?

It was on the LL, not the Keystoker,

It was smokin a bit, but I think it was just getting warm and condensing, there wasn't any flames or anything, I did shut down the one burner what really low on the coal and all the condensation on that side of the hopper and I think the hopper got really warm and was pulling some heat from the burner chamber into the hopper, nothing really that bad, but a wake up call to keep the hopper full!! I normally do, but it's been so warm and forgot to check the day before, figuring it had plently...... :) Crazy Nov. Weather....once it's gets colder out, shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks.
