that's basically how aircooled VW's get their heat. Finned heatsinks on the exhaust pipe that the engine fan blows air across and into the cabin.

Usually ends up one of two ways. No heat because something isn't hooked up right or heat that burns the hair off your ankles because there are vents in the foot area at about ankle height.

It's an air-to-air heat exchanger. Nothing particularly weird about it. The flue gases are not vented to the room.

Until the exhaust rusts out or an exhaust manifold gasket leaks; then you get a mix of :catdrugs:, :2bong:, and CO.

Though let's be honest, 14 started out in ACVWs...

I had the studs pull out of the head and drop one of the boxes on the highway. Great spark show and the open exhaust port lined up directly with the tube for the interior heat so I got direct exhaust into the car.

Being young and dumb, I drove home like that after rescuing what was left of the heater box.

That car actively tried to kill me the entire time I owned it.

Citroën 2CVs do the same thing, only the pipes for ducting heat are made of cardboard.

There is, of course, no way this can go wrong.

Saw a homebuilt one for a wood stove where there was an inner section of unbroken pipe for the chimney pipe, and a larger one outside it with air pushed through. No welds or joints on the inner one should minimize risk of getting bad stuff mixed in fresh air. Most failures would just have it leak warm air.

I'm pretty sure those are pipes run through the chimney that heat air blown through them, not holes to vent exhaust gas directly into your house.

I am an awkward fellow
after all
I have had conversations about Paqui Ghost Pepper corn chips with Dave, but tonight I got to inflict them on someone else.

I ran down to the corner gas station, and grabbed a couple powerades and a 40, and snagged a pack of these chips because they are fun as hell (hello endorphins), and for like the third time the attendant was like "I see people buyin these all the time, I wanna try them out." and I was like "My debit card rings true, I'll break open the bag right now and you can."

Well my charge goes through, and I immediately break open the bag.

"That's spicy but not too much heat."

"Waaaaaiiiiit for it."

"That's still not much." *attendant heads for the fountain drink dispenser*

"Waaaaaaaiiiiiiiiit for it."


*attendant drinks fountain drink* "Still not too ba- JESUS CHRIST"

E: I made him grab it with a napkin so he didn't touch his eyes or his dick in the next hour or two inadvertently.

no I'm familiar, I've owned aircooled VWs as a matter of fact. To me it looks like holes drilled into the exhaust / vent pipe.. which would be bad. Didn't think of it having an inner pipe. I mean the screen on the front just screams "ember catcher"
