Hello all,
Need to get back to think about winter heating and cleaning my blowers. I have heard many times here that when you clean your combustion (exhaust blower) you should make sure you have a gasket on hand because you probably won't be able to re-use once you remove the blower. Here is what I see when I explore the combustion blower:
Need to get back to think about winter heating and cleaning my blowers. I have heard many times here that when you clean your combustion (exhaust blower) you should make sure you have a gasket on hand because you probably won't be able to re-use once you remove the blower. Here is what I see when I explore the combustion blower:
- You could remove the entire blower assembly and, if you do, there would be a small rectangular gasket that would come off as well, however;
- I don't believe you need to do this, because you can remove only the motor and fans from the housing by removing 4 screws and taking that circular plate from the housing.
- When I remove the round plate there is NO gasket between the plate and the housing.
- However, if you research enviro m55 combustion blower gasket, it appears there is a round gasket that you can buy for the combusiton blower.
- To clean the combustion blower do you, in fact, only need to remove the round plate with the motor and fans?
- If so, should there be a gasket there? There obviously wasn't one installed at the factory.
