i bought an old garn that needs a little work. i believe its a whs 2500, mid 80's. it looks different then the new ones but its a garn. looking for input for any improvements that i can make as i overhaul it before i put it in service.
pretty good shape. found it on craigslist in MN. 3000 miles later.Cool. How did you come across a used Garn? And do you have a pic? What kind of shape is it in?

i got this with it. four of us could not lift it.
What the hell is that? A heat exchanger?
yeah its a big flat plate heat exchanger. about four feet tall. paid 2k for the boiler and plate, 1k for fuel, room and food door to door. figuring $500 for material to repair it. TS nailed it! gives me excuse to put a much needed addition onto my shop.What the hell is that? A heat exchanger?
I just finished "maybe" a Garn install about 25k, it was worth it , 2 beans looks the same any thing less is a good deal.Oh what the hell. I will take a stab at it. Well. Nice gassification boiler with storage included. Older model that needs work. Transporting. $ Etc. But a new one would cost you dearly. I would guess it would be worth it for you to pay $4000.00. Then put a little work and time into it. And have a nice set up for $5-6,000. Considering a little risk involved. And as you all know, I am an expert in the heating field.And I slept at a Holiday Inn Express last night. So, just throwing that out there.
Okay. You can stop laughing now.
