nt-30sp vs nt-30m

Allright, so I was getting ready to order my replacement NT-30 furnace and I noticed the new ones listed as a NT-30"SP".

My old one is a NT-30"M".

Is this model designation change for the electronic ignition? I think my "M" had a pilot light on it. The old one is currently out in the shed under a couple of things so I figured Id throw out the question before placing my order.

Hi, knjobrien5,

My "M" model has a circuit board and does not have a pilot light.

Maybe you you need to contact Suburban and find out what the "SP" nomentclature means.

Don't do it! A "Vent Free Fireplace" will be burning YOUR oxygen from inside the AS vs. your original furnace obtaining combustible air from the outside.

furnace

My new one has the pilotless ignition. I was afraid I'd need new wiring (as my old one was a pilot model), but it works with just the wiring that you have (two for the thermostat, two wires for the fan). It's nice just to throw a switch, and there you go.

Ventless - you STILL need ventaltion (the CO2 goes inside the house/trailer). Don't do it!

Darol Ingalls Thanks for the information I will not install the gas fireplace even if it looks good, the wife won,t shower in the living room any way. But may look into the marine fireplace.

A single lady at the Lansing Rally two years ago had put one of the stainless steel marine fire places in her Flying Cloud. It really looked nice and the stainless steel exposed corregated flue stack gave off heat and was attractive. I could not recommend it if you had young children. One of my very young kids fell against one and got a second degree burn on his face real fast before we could get to him. Healed ok with little scaring but scared us.
