Guess what this is....Weighs 100lbs and you make $120 per unit

These units are readily available to any scrapper here or there.
Here's one hint...........
What makes them so desirable is the copper inside.
Here's hint two.......
The unit can be broken down in 5 mins. with a screw gun.

Any guesses?

A transformer on an electric pole outside my house? Im allready going to jail for ripping off the door locks for gold boards might as well knock the power out in the neighborhood too.

I'll guess an electric arc welder.

It's not electrical.

Not electrical, but has a lot of copper in it...now I am really curious. Drawing a blank as to what it could be.

Maybe a big a/c coil?

not an a/c unit. But close.
The copper is #2 copper pipe not copper/alum rads.
I used to get two or three a day in the summer if that helps.

google "pool heater". You'll be able to snag these units like crazy in the spring. As a bonus, they have a fair bit of pool pumps for you.
You can approach these guys now and see if they have leftover scrap pool heaters. At the very least, you'll be setting yourself up for the spring.
These pool heaters are well worth the time and effort.
P.S. Some pool heaters come with brass manifolds instead of cast iron manifold. They all come with #2 copper pipes there usually nine on each and they are 18 inches long.

Hope you all like the info.

I was going to say moonshine still but I dont think those are really available to many of us, plus I wouldnt want to stop them!

Makes me think of Copperhead Road by Steve Earle...

I just picked up a hot tub motor and will go back for the other parts when I am able to. It is a friend of mines. The hot tub is broke so I asked to have the parts from it. The motor weights about 25 pounds.

Thanks diva! I will keep that in mind. We have a lot of pool repair shops around here, maybe I should also stop in and talk to them.
