Waste Oil Heater Forum - Your definitive source for burning waste oil for heat.

Good day fellow metalcasters!

Im planning to improve my waste oil burner design, can i use a ordinary hair blower as my blower?

i thought, since the blower produces hot air, its easier for the oil to ignite... its like a pre-heating.

but what bothers me is that, can the hairblower manage to function/work than long? you an i know how a woman uses her hairblower and how we metalcaster use our "blower"...

im concern with the electricity it consumes. if the 'heating' part isnt neccessary, i could remove the heating element inside a blower but im afraid it would alter the voltage level or something.

anyway, this blower part is my main problem. i would be happy to read your suggestions and comments about this 'hair blower' substitute issue..

thanks and Godspeed our castings...
