I had a minor fire at the house, I was very lucky, all I lost was a furnace. I had a complete heat exchanger failure, and the furnace kept right on running. I had flames shooting out the air intake box, sides are distorted and obviously burnt.
With the temp outdoors is about -11F, so at this point the heating system consist of (2) 23k btu Kerosun heaters. One in the living room and one in the basement,currently it about 65F in the house.
So, first thing,tomorrow morning the quest for a new furnace, starts.
No real smoke damage, I put the fire out, disconnected the electric and the gas, now it’s just a damage hulk. I was very luck, absolutely no other property or possession loss, just a 20 yr old furnace. Looking back on this, if it’s just the furnace, maybe we were blessed.
