Indoor Heaters

Transistorized

It's getting that time of year where I am dusting off heaters and preparing for the winter. I just put a new wick in my Kerosene heater and got 5 gallons for emergency heat during power outages. Test fired it and it works great! Pulled out my old Comfort Furnace XL1500W infrared heater and found that the blower motor is making noise. I took it apart and shimmed up the drive motor. Seems to be working well but I think I may retire it to a backup unit. It is 13 years old after all. I am sure the infrared bulbs are at end of life as well albeit they are working now.

I ended up ordering a new EdenPURE Copper Plus 1500W model. Seems to have good reviews. Hope it works as good as my old one.
