Empyre / Pro series 200 flapper clanging?

« on: March 18, 2014, 09:13:17 PM »

Hey guy, I bought a pro series 200 about a year and a half ago. Since I have first started using it I have had problems with the flapper on the back of the unit clanging when the blower is running. If I crack the door while it is happening it stop banging but as soon as I close it again it starts up again. I have called pro fab but can't seem to get a solution. I have changed the blower, cleaned it out many times, removed 2 lengths of chimney pipe, (still have 4 4' lengths on the unit) rearranged the brick patten as pro fab suggested and still nothing worked. Anyone else having a similar problem? I'm kind of at a loss for what to do next.

Plumbing / Heat exchanger plumbing question.

« on: October 24, 2012, 05:27:02 PM »

Hello, I am new to this forum and the world of outdoor furnaces. I just bought a empire pro 200 after much research. The question I have is how to plumb the heat exchanger into my existing boiler. Is it best to just "T" into the return side of the boiler or run a loop type system from the supply, through the heat exchanger, to the boiler return with another circulator? 
If I "T" into the return the boiler will need to use some oil to get it up to temp. when the heat has not been on for a while. The loop system will keep the boiler a temp. all the time but I'm not sure if it will keep up with demand.  Any information you guys may have would be a big help. Thanks.
