I cleaned that sump out about a year or two ago. There was lint and water in it at the time that had accumulated over the years but I think I got it cleaned pretty good. I have 4 capsule tanks that...

Those rings aren't made of stainless. Any wire welder should do the job just be careful welding it or you might burn a hole through the thin sheet metal. Getting mine welded and grinding down the...

I too was just getting ready to suggest checking the heat exchanger for the possibility of cracks. I'd also double check the o-rings at the flue to be sure they haven't been damaged and leaking...

I just had them leave the existing welds where the dome of the flame ring is welded to the bottom portion of the ring and had them continue the weld from one weld to the next until the dome was...

I just put this heater back in service 1/17/19 with a new mat and having the flame ring welded all the way around. The heater had been out of service for the last year since I installed the new mat....

Success, I put the heater back in a few minutes ago. The first attempt it didn't start up so I thought I still had a problem. Checked everything out and found I'd forgot to plug the wires back on...

I haven't tested it yet but I think I found out what was wrong. I pulled the pump out of the constant level control valve and when I turned it upside down the filter on the bottom of the pump was...

Thanks Tom. I've got both an extra pump and motherboard so I should be able to figure this out with a little work/time with no additional expense. Both of those parts are used. The pump was given...

The nozzle at the pot is clean. I removed the pot, cleaned it and put in a new burn mat last winter when the problem started. I've also taken the fuel line off and I can blow through it and feel...

I know this thread is about a year old but it's still related to the initial problem. The heater was running on high all the time and wasn't keeping the temperature up in the house. I took the...

Are you sure the sub floor hasn't been exposed to large amounts of water/moisture of any kind? About the only way to know for sure unless you've witnessed it is remove the linoleum and do a visual...

Thought I'd update this thread. The heater was giving problems so I took it apart today, the burn mat was brittle, lifting and curling up so it was replaced about 1 month short of 6 years. This was...

Everything is the same as with the other heater. The thermistor on my son's heater had a broken wire so I just unplugged it and plugged the one off my heater into it. I wasn't using economy mode on...

The reason for this thread is for people who are looking for cheaper/easier to find alternatives to MPI products and want to know how well they last. I used cheaper products, thanks to HayZee518 for...

Maybe a loose connection somewhere. I had an outlet in one of my bathrooms that would work sometimes and other times it wouldn't, ended up being a poor connection.

I don't have an extra strainer, but I bet the supplier I get my parts from Hickory Home and Garden, Hickory, NC will have it or can get it for you. You can find them on the web by searching for...

When I installed my 422 back in '96 it wouldn't fire up either. Apparently I had an air blockage somewhere in the fuel system that wasn't bleeding through the filter bleed screw. I loosened the...

Provided the fuel pump is working, if it's not getting fuel to the sump there's a good chance the fuel pump will make a thumping noise. Is it possible that while in storage dirt dobbers or wasp...

It did excellent. Woke up Monday morning to a temperature of about 3* by our home thermometer with strong winds (never heard what the official temperature or wind chill was). I'd guess the wind...

I don't know anything about your type heater accept they're similar to the Monitor. These are things you may have already checked, but if there are filters in the heater check that they're clean. I...

I have a new pot I bought for future use for my 2200 that's never been used but came with the mat already installed. It is glued all the way around the circumference except at the fuel inlet, at the...

How do their prices compare with Hickory Home and Garden? If HHG doesn't have the parts for the 2200 in stock they can get them from their supplier in Winston-Salem, NC in about 1-2 days. I bought...

Hickory Home and Garden is correct. You can also find them on the web by searching for Hickory Home and Garden. They don't have the Monitor parts listed on their web site, but there's a toll free...

Glad to see everything is working again. Nice write up, I'm sure it will be very helpful to people doing this for the first time. I know it would have been welcome information during my first...

The 93315K71 material would probably be ok to use and is closer to the thickness of the original Monitor gaskets. I use 9323K21 and double the gaskets when needed. The thing I like about the...
