I have not posted in awhile, but things have been running good with the KAA-2, so I thought I would just pop in and say hi. I started the boiler up just before Thanksgiving, (wasn't paying attention and ran out of propane) it fired up and went online without a hitch. The next day opened up the DWC, and starting feeding the water heater. We are averaging 1 bag a day (40 lbs.) to keep the house at 71. (days of laundry it tends to be more) With the coil in the furnace, it sure is nice having even heat though out the house. I keep tweaking the feed rate to see what works best, but I am not to sure how to set the air flow properly. But all is good, nice even heat, but I miss standing in front of my Hitzer 30-95 to warm up!!
