Old French Gas Heater and Stove for Gas de Ville, big Nozzle for CO rebuild for Propane. First Picture from Ultimheat Catalog. To this it was a long Way to find the right Gas-Air-Mixture. I pulled out the big Nozzle and welding something working from Scap. Drilling a 0,3 mm Hole in the Nozzle. Also my Hand-Lathe... A Picture from Behind. Inserting the nozzle with some Cork. 0,4 Bar Pressure on the Propane-Regulator. Lucky to get it working. I like the Green... Can You feel the Heat? Cheers Peter
CO = Carbon Monoxide? This heater must have been made for gas manufactured from coal right? The conversion to propane was a good idea. It's safer and easier to come by these days. The protective screen is a nice touch as well. Ben
Jump to Composition - Coal gas is a flammable gaseous fuel made from coal and supplied to the user via a piped distribution system. ... Coal gas contains a variety of calorific gases including hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane and volatile hydrocarbons together with small quantities of non-calorific gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
