Harman PF100 furnace

I've found a used PF100.
Anyone have one ? Opinions ? Anything in particular I should look for on a used one ?
Thanks for any info .

 

They stopped making them a couple of years ago , I don't know much about them , you know Dex right ?? take him with you if possible to look at it , he's a smart Dude he'll know if it's any good or not.

 

Nice furnace unit, but some have a tendency to burn up (crack, warp, bubble, or holes enlarge) firepots which are rather expensive. Definitely inspect this with a flashlight and mirror and factor into cost if bad.

 

They had an issue with their burn pots, they tried but to my knowledge never got it fixed. They (Harman) had this issue with all of their high btu units.

 

Thanks guys I'll be sure to check it outv

 

the key here is its age......over 5 years, and the burnpot will not be covered under warranty....if that baby holes or bubbles, its $500-$600 just for the part. Also check out the baffles on the left hand side of the burn chamber, see if they are still straight and not warped. All items are still available, it just matters how much is bad (or not!). Hopefully the owner has the sales slip, so its easy to ascertain age! If its a PF100 and not a PF120, its likely older than 5 years.

 

Thanks for the tips
He clames its 5 years old
I have ser# if it can be traced

 

Yes I know dex, hell of a guy very knowledgeable. I've been picking his brain hard last couple weeks.
He's the one who as created this pellet monster !!!

 

He's a great guy , I had the pleasure of spending a weekend at his home back in Oct . looking forward to doing it again this year

 

First fire in the 100

 

Good find, hope it treats you good
We like pics

 

Details, details.....we need details and more pics.

 

Well I'm on my first 12 hrs with it , so far I like it .. I really like how the harman's go into detent, has prolong life of igniters .

 

yup....the revision E circuit board......there is an F out now too

 

Thanks !! What's the F do ?

 

We've sold boilers and furnaces, while they made them. You wont find that board in either though.

 

cool stuff, mostly to help us measly techs figure out whats wrong with your stove by looking at the blink codes.......don't believe that F board will work in your furnace though, as I'm not sure they will be upgrading any of the 1-00-05888 boards (like in your furnace), with an F revision.....I'll have to keep my eyes open to see if they do.....right now its only the 1-00-05886 boards.....its a fairly minor change, but still the latest/greatest.

 

Got ya thanks .
Thought maybe it was a update that I could do... I'm one that likes updates if they better my equipment.

 

even if they did make it in the 05888 board, it would provide no functionality difference for you, the end user. More a diagnostic thingy (sorry about the technical pellet guy mumbo jumbo)
