  OK pardon me butting in, but grass and vegetation is good, trees are not? I have sticker bushes

  Okay, I got it. I pulled the burner assembly by lifting the transformer, and sliding the whole

  or gas, meaning it's just there for hot water storage, and circulates through the boiler in a
  loop until...

  Yeah, actually I went to bare wires on the far end. (then capped them) Still no real answer on
