Need parts for Bacharach FP125

Strange things happen when I leave the basement.

I left my two helpers to finish the gas line and fire the Riello 40 gas burner we installed in a Burnham V88 today.
All well and good, they should be done and back at the office at or before quitting time.

-----BUT---

Something told me to make the trip back to the job when I got no call at 5pm for OT approval. I get to the job and find them on the phone with Riello tech support, trying to find out why the burner won't fire.
In the sequence of tests the tech asked them to follow, they needed a gauge to measure draft and water column. So, my no.1 helper decides to use my Fyrite 125 to measure the draft at the tube. But there is no way to attach the probe to the tube on the burner because the tube is to large. He proceeds to disconnect the probe by CUTTING COMPLETELY THROUGH the rubber tubing and the wire for the temp sensor.

I need to know where to find the parts to fix this, as I use this tool everyday. Would Sid Harvey have such a thing?

Oh! the problem with the Riello that caused the no start? Gas all the way to the gas train, but not entering the burner?

That's right, you guessed it. When attaching the gas train to the half union under the blast tube, neither of them found the red rubber plug sealing the half union. Can't really blame them, it was pushed up into the nipple. The tech on the phone said that maybe the factory guys were having some fun. I think he said that to keep me from strangling both of them with what was left of the draft tubing. (just kidding).

It just goes to show you; You learn something new everyday. And sometimes the easiest things can bog you down.

    You need a 24-3004 PROBE AND HOSE ASSEMBLY WITH SAMPLE DRAFT AND THERMOCOUPLE LINES FOR FYRITE PRO 125 & PCA MODELS WITH DRAFT. You can go to www.patriot-supply.com and order it online.


  • Thank you for turning me on to Patriot-Supply.

    I ordered the probe kit today.

    The people there are very helpful and they seem to know their stuff.

    Thanks again.
