Man, what a difference cleaning the room air blower makes! Wish I had done it sooner.
Ive gone through 2.5 tons in my first season of heating and today was the first time I pulled
the back off and vacuumed in there.
I haven't even turned it up past 1-1!!

Is it even going to be necessary to pull the blower and replace the gasket this summer if I
can clean it this good?
Thanks for the insight pigs.
 
I wish Englander would have mentioned the fan thing and the hundred other things i learned from this web-site in the owners manual.
 
If all the stove owners manuals had all that info in them no one would come to this site :)

craig's list? Or maybe e-bay?
 
so what do you guys think about the blower gasket?
 
Depends on how old your stove is. Mine is 4 years old and the gasket shows no signs of wear.
