Jingle Bell Furnace Fix

[Pahaska]

I fired off the furnace for the first time last night and it played something that sounded like Jingle Bells to me. The front plate of the furnace just hangs on at the top with a single twist fastener at the bottom and it had about 1/8" of play to jiingle against the front flange of the furnace.

I fixed it by putting a thin strip of Velcro fuzz down each side of the front flange of the furnace. This entirely quieted the vibration.

Incidentally, a Pelonis disk heater kept my International cozy through a 30-degree night and the furnace never came on after I first checked it out.
