Checking For Air Leaks
If you suspect that your HEATMOR™ has an air leak, we recommend that you check all three flue covers, ash
pan door, airbox cover door, fan opening, internal hopper door, external hopper door and firebox door are shut
tightly. To detect an air leak, put some green grass (or something which will create heavy smoke) in the firepot
of the furnace. When the furnace is smoking, cover the chimney and turn off the blower and watch for smoke
leaks. If you still suspect an airleak after checking these locations or need assistance in finding the airleak,
contact your dealer.
Air leaks cause the fire to not burn as hot or efficiently. In result you will use more wood pellets to achieve the
desired water temperature. The HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace is designed with over / under forced drafts and
if air leaks occur, it would change the output of the furnace.
