I thought you might enjoy seeing this bucket a day system that was in a house I recently purchased. I never did get to try it out, the weld at the base had cracked. The previous owner used it to heat the first floor of a cape cod with radiators and dhw.

I just saw one of those for sale on CL this week, maybe yours ?

Very interesting, that would be a huge savings for someone like myself that has an electric water heater and fuel oil boiler with radiators if it heats enough water.

Do you plan to fix it and use it ?
