My dad has an older Heatmaster G200. It is labeled as a Chinook 200 with a build date of 2011. I am in need of the nozzle refractory piece his has cracked. I can't seem to find it anywhere online. Any of you guys ever replace these or know where I can find one?

Thanks in advance

Probably have to contact HeatMaster corporate office.

I contacted Heatmaster directly and they would not sell me one, said I had to go through a dealer. I contacted my local dealer and am going tonight to look at one he said might work. I also asked Heatmaster if they had a parts diagram for the stove and they said they did not. Has anyone ever tried making a metal piece that covers the holes to help wearing on the brick? Like cut a plate that fits directly over the firebox floor? This is the third year for this stove and the bricks are worn out already.

E Yoder thanks for the number if my local guy does not have one I will contact you.

I’ve thought about it, would like to find a 3/8" or 1/2" plate of 409 to cut it from.

I burned a Chinook back in 2010 I think, so my memory might be getting fuzzy. That was the winter I was snowed in several weeks and I was digging wood for the Chinook with a skid steer, so it does stand out.
Anyway, if I'm remembering right the Chinook 200 had 3 nozzles crossways in the floor. If you could cut that pattern out of some thick 409 like mlappin said I think it could greatly extend the life of the brick. I cut something similar out of 10 gauge 409 and burned for one winter just to see what would happen and it oxidized and got wider right at the hole, but lasted one winter.
I don't think any dealer would have the brick for your model in stock as it's completely different than the current design of the G200. But I'm sure one could be cast to fit.

That is how my dads stove is the nozzles are crossways. I tried to measure it and its about 12 wide by 32 long. I stopped at my local dealer and he had nothing close to it. He was not around to talk to either. Gonna have a hard time finding some 1/2 409 and if I do it might be expensive, would mild steel 1/2 thick work?

[mlappin]

Mild 1/2 would work, might need several to make it thru the season though.

Course mild steel is cheap enough may not be a big deal to make several at a time.
