Greetings,
I replaced this furnace with an updated forced air unit. I have no idea what model it is and cannot find an ID tag of any sort. If anyone has any clue on this thing i would be grateful. Thanks!

Its a Chappee boiler, not a furnace. They were imported from France in the 1970’s and 1980’s. I have two, one heats my mostly uninsulated 1600sq ft 1793 farm house. It very easily keeps us at 75f all winter. Max output is, if I remember, 140,000 btu continuous. Water temperature is adjustable via an automatic damper control. Great product!

Thanks Don. Is there anywhere to sell something like this or even a market for them? Any idea of value?

I’d like one but you are likely too far away.
