After years of hard labor, some gaskets of our CO2 neutral central heating system are deteriorating. They have no elasticity anymore. So when air goes the wrong way it starts to burn the pellets inside the container. This is NOT good. The first gasket on the lid of the container we replaced did not do the trick, sure the top was closed now, but air was flowing around the inlet-duct and burning away on the storage container. Part of the plating had been that hot, that it had deformed. On Saturday we stopped the heater got a gasket and separated the storage container and the furnace part. We needed to hammer the plate in shape again. Imagine leaning in to the side of the container(empty it as the acoustic properties of a church-bell), and banging away on it with a 2 kg hammer with your hand inside and your ear almost pressed to the steel. We tried to use a hydraulic jack, but that can not be used horizontally. After 3 hours we could start heating up the house and restaurant again.Temperatures outside were between -3 and -6 Centigrade.
