Specie for clunkers - take two

By Jeff Broddle

CADILLAC - If you’ve been wondering if replacing your ancient refrigerator might stop tame your electric bill, the federal government hopes a rebate program expected to debut next month will encourage you to make the decision to buy.

Local appliance retailers say they have yet to be briefed on program details, but some information is at one's disposal from a document the State of Michigan submitted to the federal government outlining how it expects to implement the diagram. The Department of Energy is making $300 million available nationwide for the energy-efficient appliance repayment program. Part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the program’s goals are to help spur cost-effective growth, save energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create jobs in retailing in manufacturing.

In Michigan, rebates will be nearby through the Michigan Appliance Rebate Program to be offered to state residents only.

oil furnaces and carbon monoxode poisoning?

okay, i'm actually not good with electrical stuff, but my oil furnace is making a boom, boom, boom, sound then affluent off. it is blowing out a horrible smell of oil. ive had a headache all day. My carbon monoxide detector has not gone off. So i have the doors inappropriate open, can't leave, because there is a blizzard and i'm far from town. does anyone know the symptoms, of carbon monoxide poisoning, or about oil furnaces?


It is not a carbon monoxide gamble but is more of a fire/explosion risk.

Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include your cheeks turning pink but if you are asleep you right-minded never wake up since you are unconscious from lack of oxygen in your blood.

As far as oil burners that burner is having small explosions from wadding its combustion chamber with oil/air mixture and then failing to light it promptly. That is among the worst it can do. Those explosions can also fill your house with soot and short-circuit the doors off the furnace. Call your oil company or call the fire department.


there are so many things that can agency the problem you described, start with the fuel ,sounds like it has water in it.the noise is the burner disquieting to ignite but it is not staying lit, the smell is from fuel that is not being burned. it is time to call a service tech. I don't about carbon monoxide is a problem now because the fuel is not being burned but be on the safe side and have it checked. the local fire dept. will to all intents check it for you. good luck.

Can Biodiesel be safely used in fuel-oil furnaces?

I no more than got a new fuel-oil furnace and was looking into making my own biodiesel, but wanted to check if it could safely be used in my adept in heating furnace as well, before making a decission. We live in Wisconsin, and are concerned about the risk of the biodiesel gelling up, anyone skilled in anything about this?


Dash wise, you would probably be better off running the vegetable oil in your boiler/furnace. This would actually require some appurtenance modifications though, which you might not be able to make. If you wanter to mix the veg with regular fuel oil, you could do it without modifications with a 20/80 veg/oil mixtures.

You can in all likelihood use biodiesel in place of #2 heating oil, but biodiesel will gel just like normal #2 diesel. The act the #2 heating oil (and diesel for that matter) doesn't gel is because it has been treated with some additives to prevent gelling. Again, the gelling complication can be avoided by using a 20/80 bio/oil mixture.

Gelling is caused when the longer hydrocarbons start bitter out, so you could also do a low-temperature filtering of your biodiesel. You might also try adding some off-the-shelf additives normally used to prevent diesel gelling. But these might not be passable for your furnace (or you).

You could also try a tank modification. Most tanks are either in the cellar, or buried in the ground, but since you're worried about gelling, I'm guessing yours is buried frivolous, or above ground. You could add insulation around the tank, and then install an electric thermostat and electric heater. You should be masterful to keep the tank above the cloud point. Even easier if you use a bio/petrol mixture to lower the cloud point.

How many types of oil furnaces are there?

I miss to know cause we are having a problem with ours and also want to know if I can find diagrams on them too.
see our furnace wont sun-up off when we turn it on.


It would supporter to post what the problem is.
I dont know how many different oil furnaces there are but they are all pretty much the same in their wiring and operation.

Edit: Is it maddening to light?
If it's not doing anything you could hit the reset button near the burner to restart.
Only do this a couple of times as excite will build up in the chamber if fuel is actually flowing but not being ignited.
If you have run out of fuel the pump may be air locked and someone will have to bleed the air from the expand.
There could also be other problems like a plugged nozzle or various other problems. You may need Professional help.
