Going into my third season with my insert, I started to think about the longevity of the blowers. These are on basically December through April. I was wondering what would happen if there was a problem and one of the motors seized or some other electrical problem while i wasn't home.
Im wondering if someone else had thought about this, and if they have any safeguards. Would a GFCI or AFCI add any protection in case of motor failure? Would the circuit breaker work here? My worry is an overheated motor causing a fire, and not the fire causing the fire.
All input welcome. Maybe some pellet guys could add something to this.
