They thought it was a cold air trap so it wouldn't backdraft cold air into the unit/home at standby. Guess they overlooked that little thing about venting and CO....

Ah, the old Winkler. Made GREAT boat moorings out our way! That one looks like it's in an old Columbia boiler??? I thought all those old things were gone years ago. Borg Warner, now York, if I recall correctly. Never ran worth a darn on #2, let alone perfume or peanut oil as originally claimed!
If YOU want change, YOU have to first change.
If you are waiting for the 'other guy' to change first, just remember, you're the 'other guy's' other guy. To continue to expect real change when you keep acting the same way as always, is folly. Won't happen. Real change will only happen when a majority of the people change the way they vote!
