The product, in the report: Oil Fired Steam System Furnace
The consumer says her maintenance man told her three year old burner is cracked and there is a great big hole as big as a baseball. She says the steam in the unit has been going up the chimney since November. Consumer says it takes a very high temperature for her to heat the house. She says it has to be at 74 degrees just to heat to start up. She contacted the manufacturer and they told her the water in the area was too harsh. Consumer said they offered no remedy or assistance.
