Hi Folks
I dug up another Pelpro. I like these stoves and I like the Bay View model the best.
Well this one has a noisy exhaust blower and since I had to take the whole housing out and it has a squirrel cage, I can see why it was not wanted anymore. Another fun project! I lucked out on the control board because a neighbor around the corner needed one so I gave him a super price on a used board that worked fine! Now I can get a new control panel with the T-Stat option which is really needed here. The disappointing news is that HHT purchased Pelpro since it must not have been doing well. So to fix the problem HHT jacked up the price on all the Pelpro parts. :-( Also since this exhaust blower has a squirrel cage, an OEM part may be the only option? Do you think the Fasco Universal A082 Blower with housing will fit? I have one that I can try! That would be an upgrade IMO ! LOL
So I made a short vid so you can hear the problem. Sounds like something rubbing?
