Dear American Energy Systems,
The years have gone by, and I have had the same results every time so I wanted to share them with your company. I am heating approximately 4500 sq feet of office space and warehouse.
Another heating season is starting, and I am very happy to inform you that I just had another flawless start up of both my heating units. I have an old 6500 furnace along with a baby corn stove. I am an extremely busy person, and maintenance is not one of my strong points. I am scared to confess that the past few years I have neglected to clean them after the heating season ended. In fact, I simply let the corn/wood pellets run out, the unit turned off, and that’s the way I left them all summer until just today. After a lot of vacuuming with my ash vac, I filled it, started it, and let them take off. These things are unbelievable. So, I simply wanted you to have my thanks for building such a solid unit, that even I can run it.
Ps, I will try to do a better job servicing my units this year. I want them to continuing saving me boat loads of money. One more thing: with natural gas it was costing up to $1000 a month to heat my office area. Now, it takes a pallet of corn which runs around $300 a month. HUGE savings there. Thank you very much for helping me buy my snow mobiles.
Sincerely,
Michael
I have a 6500 corn furnace whose heat exchanger developed a hole. Does anyone know the procedure for replacing it. Love my furnace.
The Heat Exchangers are welding in and it is very complicated to change out the system. Holes are typically caused by improper setting of the static pressure on install and if there are a couple holes showing there will be more holes that you don’t see. The whole upper section of the furnace could have been compromised. Contact Technical@magnumheat.com for additional information.
Are there any dealers out there with a “new in the box” magnum 6500? Interested in purchaing it.
The factory does not know of any furnaces available. You could check on EBAY but be very careful of purchasing a used unit, could be plugged or bad from neglect. Most customers are opting for adding in one or two Countryside units and find that they are more efficient and you can also have the pleasure of being able to watch the fire and cozy up to it for extra warmth. Contact the factory for great pre-season deals.
