Shaver Furnace / I love my shaver 165 and all the holes
« on: December 01, 2013, 08:33:01 PM »
Hi, new member here with rust- problems.
I bought a shaver 165 owb in late 2008 and was delivered in feb 09.
I let it sit for the rest of the winter and installed it in the later months of the year around aug (with no water in it yet). Never had a problem and seemed to keep my poorly insulated house around 72°. This past winter (2012)going into (2013)
I was topping off and all of a sudden I seen a lot of steam coming out the bottom of stove. I quickly ran over and saw the water was pouring out the bottom of the stove. So now im trying to fix and just was curious what others are doing to fix the problem with the bottom of the stove rusting through. I have a sheet of 3\16 steel I can weld on bottom and have a plasma cutter for cutting. I got a very good deal on the steel otherwise I would have gotten 1\4 inch plate
ok so now im asking for you to look at the pictures and help me plan the best way of going about fixing this thank you all and look forward to your suggestions.
