[AT] waste oil burner

[Greg Hass]

My cousin used an old cast iron wood furnace in his shop for a few 
years.  They drilled and tapped a fitting on the top and middle of the 
furnace so the oil would run directly into the center of the 
furnace.  Nothing actually stuck out into the firepot. I don't remember 
where the control valve was located; however, I do remember their biggest 
problem was that as the stove heated up the oil would run faster and faster 
until the stove would overheat and they would constantly have to adjust the 
flow.  Maybe they could have fixed the problem by relocating the flow 
valve, I just don't remember that detail well enough.  As he hired more 
help and became more able to afford things, he removed the oil burner and 
installed overhead gas furnaces.
