Portage & Main / BL 28 40 fire brick spacing
« on: November 02, 2017, 10:51:03 AM »
On our 3rd season now and I may have figured out an easy way to keep the fire bricks where they belong.  They tend to move when stirring the ashes and last season ended with them close together in the center and a large openings at the ends. This made getting the ashes to drop out the bottom something of a challenge.  For this season I used 1/2 inch X 2.5 inch or longer bolts with large washers placed in the gaps after I cleaned the boiler.  The longer bolts will help them stay put.  So far this season ( still pretty early ) it seem to be getting a better burn and the ashes are not pilling up like the first 2 seasons.  It is a fairly simple and cheap fix.

On my second season now with my 28-40 and last night when putting wood in I notices the blower fan making noise it had not made before. Makes me wonder if I should round up a replacement sooner rather than later.  Where is a good place to find that spare motor?
