Hello,
I have an older Greenwood 100, bought in 2008, and the heat exchanger in it finally developed a leak.
Does anyone know where I could buy a replacement heat exchanger? Is there somebody somewhere making these?
I'm going to my local welder but think it might be time to do more than just the leak repair. I'll ask my welder about making me up a new one, but I'm guessing he'll say it will take a couple months. It's cold here, don't want to wait.
Thanks in advance.

Once a year I take off the back panel to access the rear section of the HX and use a wire brush and shop vac. I clean the HX tubes in the front by opening the front loading door and reach up with chimney brush. It gets the top section of the HX pretty clean, but can't reach all the tubes up there. It's good enough for me.
