WoodMaster / water level light

« on: April 03, 2016, 05:35:23 AM »

I replaced the water temp light last year because it wasn't working anymore.  Had to purchase the whole unit because they didn't sell the LED anymore.   

We had a power outage yesterday for about an hour and the light is off again.  I thought my water level might be low so added some.  Didn't take much.  I cycled the furance off and back on at the breaker thinking that might reset everything.  The power flickered several times before going completly off for about an hour.  I wonder if that thing is voltage sensitive and a surge fried it? 

Do I have to purchase another light module again?

Anyone else run into that problem.

Equipment / stihl chain saws

« on: March 01, 2014, 02:44:07 PM »

Have been using an 038 AV super Pro for several years.  The throttle handle broke completely off today. It had been partially broken but I had repaired with some pop rivets and soffit material.  That lasted 2 or 3 years. Anyone know whether parts are still available for that model saw?  I can get spark plugs, air cleaners, chain,bars etc.

WoodMaster / unhooked spring

« on: March 06, 2010, 05:37:45 PM »

I noticed this morning that the fan had a kind of funny sound but wasn't sure what it was.  Later this afternoon I noticed the temperature was way down and the funny noise was still there. 

Got the tool kit out and pulled the cover and the spring had unhooked from the flapper for some reason.  Never had that happen before.  Hooked everything up and left the cover off until temps were up on the aquastat to see if everything worked. 

Any one else had that happen?

WoodMaster / thermostat wiring

« on: March 06, 2010, 06:29:10 AM »

I have a Woodmaster 4400 now in use for 2 years.  Love the savings in propane.  My backup furnace is a propane that I will probably switch over too soon rather than keeping a low fire going over the next  month.

My situation is that I use the furnace fan to circulate my warm air.  I have dual thermostats but something is not quite right in the wiring and I have a problem getting the service tech out.  I have an AC/Heat Pump as well hooked into the main thermostat.

I thought that when the wood furnace goes down the main furnace was supposed to switch on to back me up in case I'm not there.
However that doesn't happen and I have to switch off the wood furnace thermostat and turn the main thermostat furnace on. 

Anyone have any ideas on what to look for in the wiring?  I have to wonder whether it has something to do with the Heat pump set up.
