    Singer Furnace Overhaul

    I've never seen any signs of baffles. It makes sense though. Yep, early 80's is my understanding too. This thing is a work horse.

    Singer Furnace Overhaul

    The ribbon burners are all in good shape. I didn't get a pic of all of them. When I first bought the place 15 years ago, two of the ribbon burners were missing the air flow adjust caps. I knew that was wrong. At the time, I has squirrels running around the attic. So I was Big Time on eliminating...

    Singer Furnace Overhaul

    Overhaul Pics. This is the only thing I really had to overhaul. I did rewire it about 9 years ago. That was a day I clearly remember. I started out just cleaning the connectors with a wire brush. I got them all looking new. Connected it back up and fired it up and the old wiring started on fire...

    Singer Furnace Overhaul

    Hello, I have been overhauling my furnace for the last two days.

    Removing the stack and planning for the future

    Removing the stack and planning for the future

    Yikes!, I've seen that picture. It never made any sense until now - "Reventing take place six inches above the flood level of the fixtures served." That means I only have a main line vent. That's gonna take some fancy plumbing, but you made it perfectly clear what needs to be done. Thank You , Sir

    Water heater connection. What is this?

    Looks like half a water heater dialectric union to me. The junk is the plastic that has corroded.

    Removing the stack and planning for the future

    I've lurked this forum for years. It has always been a go to for me and has been a resource, but now I'm going big....I have old cast iron still in place. The vent/The stack/The line to the street. It is all 4". 1933 is a date that I found under the cement utility sink. It still all works, but I...
