im the proud owner of a NOS force 10 cozy cabin heater
it was screwed to the wall of a consignment store i visited today out on long island several years ago and i couldnt leave without it
it is a natural gas model
question is, has anyone converted one of these to propane from NG? if so is it a simple orifice swap like in a home stove ? or are the burner units from force 10 non serviceable?
it didnt come with the deck cap, so that will be another 75-90 bucks, or i can just make something comparable, im hoping i can convert this, it is basically new, never used, still had some of the plastic protector stuff on it, but even if im forced to buy the new conversion piece i will still be in the ball park of new price ....... so i have to possibility of an awesome deal, with worst case being just a good deal so all in all a nice little find i think
and the consignment store i didnt find on the list so im going to put it here for any folks going through the area......
1st marine consignment of long island
30 carlough rd
bohemia, ny 11716
631-647-3628
open 7 days a week, 10-6

this place has everything, and i do mean everything, packed neatly to the gills, and sorted for easy scrounging around a good 5-6 thousand sqft warehouse .... and new stuff coming in all the time!
