I'm about to start replacing the combustion motor/housing assembly tonight on my dead Harman Invincible Insert. I was wondering if there are any procedural tips / tricks anyone can send my way. I'm hoping it will be straightfoward-- 4 bolts and all out but I have an ominous suspicion that there may be problems.
For example:
I was wondering if I need to use hi-temp 500deg silicone sealant, or furnace cement (or nothing) between the blower housing and the stove?
Did I need to get a special gasket for the install?
I did get new impeller blades to attach to the motor as they do not come with them!
I'll check back for any tips and for sure will be back if I run into any problems. And if all goes well (eventually), I will summarize the process for others.
Thanks in advance!
