WASTE OIL FURNACE
Babington Burner

First time being fired in its new home.  Still no water in it so could not run it for any length of time. Same as the previous shot but just a little closer.
Finally got water in it.  Close up view of the temperature gauge used to monitor the system. View of the compressor used for the Babington Ball air.
Just a view of the wiring in process.  I will make it neater when the control system is proven. A closer view of the water heater thermostat I am using for furnace control.  This will have to be changed as it only goes to 150 F.  Want one that goes to 180 F.
Getting some help digging a trench to get water into the WOF room. Setting up an experimental run using a salvaged AC evaporator.  Problem with it is the limited flow rate for water.  With 150 F water, it put out only 17,000 BTU/hour.  I would like three times that.
My experimental set up for blowing hot air.  Note the box fan sitting under the AC evaporator. Using a water meter to measure flow through the radiator.
Another over view shot of the experimental measurement of the AC evaporator. The project has come a long way since Tony first poured a mixture of SVO and diesel fuel into a burner.

The end for now.  More photos to come.
