Electronics / Re: Wiring my OWF

« on: October 29, 2016, 06:46:39 PM »

Before the OWF was there the forced air oil burning furnace was hooked up. Then I got the OWF and had a different HVAC Tech hook the OWF using the what was already there for the oil furnace. Same thermostat only difference was that the wiring in the forced air oil furnace was manipulated. When the thermostat called for heat instead of the oil furnace firing it would turn the circulating pump on along with the forced air furnace fan. I had 2 wires that if I wanted to run the oil furnace all I had to do was wire nut them together.

Electronics / Wiring my OWF

« on: October 27, 2016, 10:52:07 AM »

I am a first time poster but a veteran wood furnace user - I have had/used my OWF for approximately 10 seasons and originally I had a HVAC Tech hook up my OWF to my forced air oil burning furnace. The tech hooked up the thermostat to the OWF to kick the circulating pump on and simultaneously turn my fan/blower on (from the oil furnace) to circulate the heat throughout the house. Last year I had a problem with my oil furnace controller. The oil furnace tech (different than the one that originally hooked up) replaced the controller and hooked the oil furnace back up. All good but could only run OWF manually by turning the oil furnace blower on and jumpering my OWF circulating pump to run.  I called the oil furnace tech and said that they need to hook up the way it was hooked up before so I could run my OWF automatically. They told me they could not (mentioned something about laws/regulations) and anyways that is a completely different story. So how do I hook up my OWF to work automatically like before?

How much for about 8 foot of 1 inch door gasket and a bottle of rust inhibitor (enough for ~250 gallons) and shipping to 21773?

Mahoning / Gaskets-Rust Inhibitor-basic maintenance stuff

« on: August 06, 2013, 05:56:29 AM »

I have a Model 200 and have been using it for the past 7-8 years. I have had to replace a pump and door gaskets and try to add rust inhibitor at least once a year. This time of year is the time to perform all of the maintenance and my question to all is where is a good place to purchase such things like door gaskets and rust inhibitor? In the past I have always talked to the Mahoning Representative that covers my area.
