Hey Dudes, I figure I should address this issue before it gets any colder... especially considering we just got 1.5' of snow!
My combustion fan in my St Croix Prescott EX is making a howling noise, and it is intermittent. Every couple of seconds it will make a noise and then go away. It is somewhat tolerable, but since this is in my living room next to my tv, Id like to solve it.
I am reading that the sealed bearings will quit after a number of years of service and the only option is to replace the blower. Thing of it is I am only seeing the option to replace the room fan, not the combustion fan. My stove takes a Fasco 702112176 U21B motor and I found one online for fairly short money ($120) and it comes with the lower steel combustion housing. should I just bite the bullet and replace the whole Assembly? The noise seems like its coming from the housing and not the motor.
Thanks!
