Title: Taylor Waterstove Door Issues
Post by: kjw58 on October 28, 2011, 05:10:20 PM
On a recent trip to North Carolina, the neighbor where we were staying had a owb out back so I went over to check it out. Turns out it is a Taylor Waterstove, the guy proceded to tell me how the stove was only 1 yr old and the steel plate on the inside of the door was warping around the air intake hole for the blower and allowing the refractory stone to chip away and fall out. You can stick your fingers up in the opening where the refractory stone has fallen out !

He says he has contacted Taylor about this and they say the door is not under warranty, and wished him luck!!  Has anyone else had any issues with these stoves, I think the model is T-450.  And is it common practice on owb's  to exclude the door from the warranty ????
