I'm rather new to the coal burning world -- when I purchased my home, there was a Timber-Eze wood/coal boiler installed that I've come to love.
The issue that I have is that my insurance company is questioning the stove type/make/model/etc -- and wants to know more information on the boiler.
As far as I can tell, the boiler is a Timber Eze model 210 or 220; I gathered this by finding an old eBay listing
( http://www.ebay.com/itm/Timber-Eze-wood-coal-boil ... 7675.l2557 )
and x-ref'ing it with Google images:

(Following the link from the photo takes me to the eBay listing (from Hong Kong, but I dropped the .hk from the web address and found the English-version of the listing)
Would there be any chance anyone here might have any of these materials, or could point me in the correct direction?
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer. (I realize, this is asking alot, esp since I'm new to this board. I promise -- as I learn more about burning this boiler, I will contribute more.)

There is probably a plate on there somewhere with the model and other information listed, try taking the jacket off .

You're looking for something like this, on this boiler it's on the top. Not sure if that's common but it's first place I'd look for it.
As far as operating it post some pictures of it, in particular the controls and the grate area.

Hi Richard -- Thanks! I never even thought about taking the jacket off. I'll check that out.
For operating it, I've gotten pretty decent at that. (I learned the hard way, but the boiler and I have an understanding!) I had asked for the manuals in the event that there was some info that I could pass along to the insurance agent.
I will definitely post photos once I am back home. It's an "oldie but goodie" as far as I am concerned. Keeps my house nice and warm and doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to heat.
Thanks again for the info -- I'll post how I make out!

Woodsman's Parts Plus may have some info, they sell grates for some of those appliances. Their site has a cross reference page, try it out. I saw a model that may be similar.

My wife is an office manager at the local insurance agency, they typically have no interest in a solid fuel appliance if it is a boiler or furnace. It is stoves that make them nervous. That said, finding an H stamp on the boiler should calm his worry. It should be on the info plate with the manufacturer's name and details about the appliance. The H stamp means it was manufactured in accordance with ASME specifications, the end of the line for the bean counters.
