I never c«*»ld see the point in go
ing to the expense of buying a new
part for a furnace just because the
old one had a crack in it. As long
as it held together, what difference
did it make whether it was cracked
or not ?
That was the question I put to
the head of the world’s largest in- i
stallers of home heating equipment, i
and now I am a much wiser per-'
son. In the process of combustion,!
the oxygen in the air joins up with
the carbon of the fuel. The rate of i
combustion is governed by the |
amount of oxygen admitted to the i
fuel—open the draft of a coal fire, j
and up goes the heat; close it, and
the fire is checked. A crack in the1
firepot becomes a “port of entry"!
for a continuous admission of oxy-!
gen, which in effect sets up a con-1
sta’nt draft no matter how tightly1
the fire is checked through the reg-!
ular draft control. The fuel burns
faster than we want it to, not only
making it harder to hold the fire
over night, but very definitely run-!
ning up the cost of heating. Sol
that’s why it is cheaper to buy a
new firepot than to pay for extra
coal wasted by the draft through 1
the crack.
The same thing is true of the!
joints between the furnace parts.1
If they become loose, as they are!
bound to in time because of the
join l cement burning out and
crumbling away, then the seal is
broken and the fire is no longer un- j
dor proper draft control. Therefore,
it is the recommendation of furnace
makers to have the furnace taken
down every fourth or fifth year and
have the joints re-cemented.
A competent inspection of your i
furnace by a reliable heating man
is the best way of playing safe
each year.
