    Lanair

    Does anyone out there know where I can get parts for a Lanair waste oil furnace. The o-rings is really what I need. I can get new blocks from Lanair, but it seems I should be able to get just the o-rings somewhere a whole lot cheaper.

    Have to be careful.

    O-ring material is very dependent. All o rings are not created equal. You have EPDM, Buna, and a whole lot of other compounds. The compound is chosen for the substance that the o ring is sealing against.

    Waste oil can contain different petroleum distillates. So the o rings are specific to seal against everything from transmission fluid to Delo oil.

    Just be careful or you could have mess on the floor.

    Good Luck
