Keystoker A125; Please Give Experiences

I am considering replacing my two stokers with a Keystoker A125 for my raised ranch. Can anybody give me any feedback on experiences they have had with them? Goods, bads? Anyone currently heating with one? What size dwelling?

Thanks

Mark

Is that a warm air furnace ?...Im not familiar with that model
..we heat with a koker A150 furnace..New this year....couldnt be happier

yes, from what I understand it is an older warm air furnace and the A150 replaced it. Also looking for any advise on inspecting, i.e. knowing what to look for when 'kicking its tires' I am familiar with stokers but a furnace is a whole new experience for me.

With a proper hot air distribution system this would easily heat your place, and probably use less coal than you already use now.

Corrosion is the biggest thing to look for, more so in corners and angled joints.

Grates can be warped or cracked, blower can be out of balance, gearbox can be worn, timer can have issues, baffle plate can lose hooks for support, fan and motors can be worn...these all can be repaired but cost money...corrosion, not repaired easily.

We are heating about 3300 sq. ft of living space
...plus an additional 1000sq. ft of un finished basement (the basement is only kept at 62 or so)
tho we are still "under construction"..the A150 has performed quite well.
I wasnt able to finish siding before cold weather hit...and a large part of the house wont get the stone exterior til spring...and not to mention insulation in the basement to be done
....my point is...i cant imagine this furnace working any easier...but when the house is complete..i know it will.
The last couple of days have been a test (last 3mornings in a row below 0 outside...with plenty of wind)
...and it just keeps on pouring out the heat.
I wish I could tell you what to look for as far as used ones go...but other than what mcgiever stated...just do your homework
..what I can tell you is..no matter what you heat with...true comfort is going to depend on an adequate heat distribution system.....this is KEY.
...hope this has helped

rigar,
So this is with the a150 correct? this sounds very promising but I guess I am wondering about the a125, its age and actual legacy. i.e. is it actually predecessor to a150, actual BTU output, quality, era this was built in etc...

keep the experiences coming...

Thanks,

Mark

I actually have to contact Keystone myself actually...
I will ask about the 125...see what they sa
... The A150 has an OUTPUT rating of 150 000 BTU / hour
...i have a feeling that its actually more...
