WoodMaster / Re: Flapper on blower not opening

« on: December 26, 2017, 09:55:59 AM »

Yeah, I have seen the posts about the flap sticking, I have inspected the flap and didn't see any creosote.  It has happened a couple times so I don't think it is creosote buildup.  I will try lifting the flap next time it happens.  I actually bought a flap this summer as part of a maintenance kit, but I didn't like it was in bad shape at all.   I manually pushed the solenoid in and it didn't feel like it was sliding freely.

thanks for your help!

WoodMaster / Flapper on blower not opening

« on: December 25, 2017, 09:30:05 AM »

Anyone have issues with the flapper not opening when the blower kicks on?  I have caught it a couple times by hearing a buzzing sound when the blower is on.  When I shut the blower off with the switch and turn it back on, the flapper then opens.  Fire went out last night on a cold night because of the flapper not opening. Is there a good way to clean the solenoid or does it need replaced?

Thanks
