Central Boiler / Re: Temps at 206 degrees
« on: February 15, 2012, 09:26:11 AM »
This is my first post here. So, Hello to everyone.
I have a 4436 and have had the over heating problem a couple of times. It only happens when we have high winds. My CB is facing the west. I stopped the problem by setting a piece of metal in front of the damper section on windy days because it only happens with 15 mph and up winds. I've checked the damper with a light from the inside and can't see anything wrong. On another site someone suggested drilling a 3/8" hole in the flu pipe near the tee. I haven't done that but it may work. Their thinking was it may be a draft induced by the wind over the end of the flu. Right now I'll stick with leaning the metal against the damper cover.
