    Hello. I have such a question, is it possible that the water will boil in the CO boiler due to some fault of the fan (mounted on the stove). A stove with a controller, without a feeder, for fine coal and coal. I have two houses and recently moved the fan to the second stove. On that recently there was a problem with the boiling water. We were looking for the cause. After moving the fan, this problem occurred in the second furnace. The fan was recently purchased. I have set on the controller that at 55 degrees the fan should turn off. And it kind of turns off, you can't hear the work. But the temperature goes up to 90 degrees. Could it be the fan's fault? The same is true for two stoves ... it gives food for thought.

    So it is an ordinary charging boiler? Can you provide the make and model? What are you currently smoking in it? A nut charcoal?

    Theoretically, there may be a problem with the blower, if after switching off the shutter gives too much left air, the temperature will go up despite switching off the blower.

    I have a question ... Do you plan to be burning in this furnace at the moment? Will you only smoke in it with coarse coal?

    The description shows that the stove is catching "left" air somewhere, maybe also through the fan duct. The first is to ask if the fan with a "flap" which, when the fan is not working, closes the air supply through the fan duct. Then, make the door seals and cleanout channel closures properly sealed. The next question is what is burned, because, for example, thick coal contains enough air (oxygen) "in itself" (in the gaps between the pieces) to ignite excessively.

    From what you can see in the photos, this fan has no shutter. I would look for a fan with a diaphragm regulating the air flow.

    Well, how do you smoke tree it and ignites if you smoke wood it wouldn't be such a problem. :D :D :D
    But enough jokes and to the point, when burning wood there can also be a problem with excessive lighting, after all, there is also a lot of space for air between the pieces of wood and the second thing, wood burns easier, ignites, just because of "its nature", especially when it is not too hot. its correct placement and loading into the furnace.

    but so far everything was fine. I had to smoke all the time and with wood (let it be :) ) in the same way, arrange the same, etc. The problem evidently arose after replacing the fan.

    Yes, a fan without an aperture, but maybe an aperture of this type is mounted, this fan is adapted to a similar type, we do not know if it is there or not.

    Previously, I used the same fan and it worked flawlessly.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a potential issue with water boiling in a CO boiler after a fan was moved from one stove to another. The user inquires if the fan could be causing the water to boil, as the temperature rises to 90 degrees despite the controller setting to turn off the fan at 55 degrees. Responses suggest that the fan may be allowing excess air into the system, leading to overheating. The fan in question lacks a shutter, which could be contributing to the problem. The user operates a KOTŁOSPAW charging furnace using fine coal and wood, and previously had no issues with the fan. Suggestions include checking for proper sealing of door seals and cleanout channels, and considering a fan with a diaphragm to regulate airflow.
