Maximus can ya help a brother out?

 

Hi All,
Just picked up a used Fahrenheit 50F, serial number 2413. I look forward to reading through this entire thread for tips and tricks!

 

Welcome to FHC NorthernCrew454
Pics are always required and tell us about the planned install
Sounds like you've the red LED Control panel with the Auto Ignition

 

I am located in Southern WI. Have a Fahrenheit 50 for last 5 years. If you need info email me. [email protected]

 

Dex, I see you connected your cold air plenum to the furnace
It does help on the movement of cold air around the house. I was getting smoke around my DTM vent near the furnace outlet when it was igniting so I removed the heat shield to further inspect it. I found the evidence of soot at the seal which was caulked with High Temp Silicone which was probably pulled down at least a 1/4 inch when I did the assembling when first installed. So I clean it up and resilicone it. Let dry then I adjusted the extendable vent to the furnace outlet for a perfect fit. Glad I nosed around the assembled vent and corrected the problem.

 

Just noticed your cold air plenum isn't completed to the cold air return
My insurance broker brought it to my attention on propane furnace cannot be fitted with a solid burning add-on, it's a big no-no!
Maybe if they are further apart it might be allowed or different insurance companies, different rules

 

Hello everyone I am new to this group and a new owner of the 50f furnaces, got mine on the 16th of november and installed as an addon, not doing what I think that it should so is there anything that you veterens can give as pointers anything would help.

Thanks in advance.

First welcome to FHC
Pics Pics Pics are always helpful They also help on troubleshooting
What seems to be the problem?
Explain your set-up and will see what we can do for you
Serial number is required so we know which furnace you have just for references, whatever that means

 

The leaking vent fix did the job, no more smoke
Made to silicone gaskets, a round one for the exhaust fan and a square one for the otherside of the exhaust fan for impeller cleaning. Haven't install yet just waiting for a replacement time

 

I am heating around 2500 square feet and the furnace is in the basement and is hooked to the duct work from my gas furnace, the exhaust is coming out into a clean out tee to a 45 degree then up about 3 feet to another 45 then out through the foundation to another 45 with bird guard, vent is 4",and my serial number is 3627

 

Pics are always welcome.
Thanks for replying back.

 

Has anyone ever played with the auger and draft trim settings ? If so how has it worked out for ya?

 

no

No, but I could just imagine on the improvements it can do and not knowing .........................don't want to go there

 

If it aint broke dont fix it right...LOL

 

Never took the time to try it, just hooked it up and light it
But you did refresh it back somewhere deep, deep in a far corner of the brain
One of these days I/we should take the time to try it
