Thanks for sharing all your ideas in making waste oil heater. Your system is the best by far to all I see. Most of the youtuber use fan to supply oxygen to the fire, yours is always simple and no need of any outside source of extra energy to run the heater (electricity, no matter what the system should run by itself without the aid of outside source of power). The other good thing you are showing is the way you build the system simple yet effective.

Thank you so much..! i make Luke Like you make, one more time, THANK YOU ..!!

Haven't heard of a ton dish for a long time takes me back to my granny's

Very concise explanation of operation. Thank you

Man, I think you are on to something. Good work and thank you for sharing your research.

going to have a go at this design, I use a gate valve like yours Gerry, but I cut a V groove in it and it gives me greater control of my oil flow. Cheers.

if your cold air was piped in from outside you could get a cleaner burn I think by feeding colder denser air..also it would create a positive pressure in whatever room you had it in...stopping any potential drafts...I'm just thinking out loud but great idea.. it's simple and it works well..thanks for sharing!

Since i change the oil in my diesel generator, i need to make a waste oil drip stove. Your videos are helpful!

muchas gracias por compartir tu excelente idea amigo!! God bless you!

Neat thing, that! One thing to make the flames stay together more and possibly make it burn cleaner by keeping the flame in the pot longer could be to stick a screwdriver in the air intake holes and bend them sideways to channel the air around in the pot. Think like a sideways cheese grater.

Great Video. The Screen on MY Laptop is Melting !

Jod Bronson I don't think I'd be brave enough to put this setup in my house. This is great for a shop for a whole bunch of practical reasons , ie: it's cheap and simple to build, it's a little messy with the waste oil, it can get your shop warm in a jiffy. This probably shouldn't be operated unattended. Most shops have plenty of make up air available just from air leakage around the doors etc. There are other waste oil furnace designs that use a conventional hot air furnace with a Beckett burner that's been modified, and a bunch of safety features that would be more wife friendly, for the home, but the cost to build it is way more, and its way more sophisticated. In either case, make up air is always a good idea, no matter where it comes from.

Hi Joshua. I will be posting more videos in a couple of days and I go into that in the first video I think. The chamber needs to be nice and sealed to get the air and fuel to mix. The other possibility is to force the air which means you can control the amount of fuel you want to burn while making no smoke. Cheers Gerry

Great idea!

Jerry... I modified the air intake by configuring an interior sleeve inside the air intake about 1/2 " smaller dia., no holes and a flat bottom and flush with base of intake. Air now coming up and in is more intense and because my holes are in a spiral form the the burn spirals too.

You could put a small 3"-4" tall metal box under the cookie tin /dog food can set up, that has an open end facing forward towards the air vents on the front of the stove. You can make the metal box with a 5 in hole in it on top for the dog food can and biscuit in to sit in. You can pull the metal box opening on the front side, toward the front of the stove by the air vents. If you make a metal box about 10 inches wide, 14 inch Long and 3-4 inch tall, with one 10" x 3" end of the metal box open for the air vents on the stove, and cut the hole in the back top of the metal box for the dog food can, you don't have to cut a hole in the bottom of your stove. Your biscuit tin/ dog food can set up, will sit on top of your metal box and air will be sucked in through the open vents on the front of the stove. Don't put as many holes in the dog food can where it faces the front of the stove, and you will get less flame and smoke blowing toward the door. Just make the small metal box so that the open end matches where the vents are on the front of the stove.

Thanks for the reply Gerry. I did get chance to try my "old" existing marine stove. It's actually a French thing, by Deville, and designed for Diesel. I started it on "clean" diesel as it hadn't been used for years, (possibly as many as 15 !!), and having got it running, introduced old engine oil. The unit has an internal "day tank" and I very successfully burnt a whole tank of engine oil, without the faintest wisp of smoke, and a mainly blue flame, which on these things, indicates good fuel vaporization. Simply "naturally aspirated" with no fan assisted or "rocket" tendencies it's rated at 5.5kW, which will keep me probably 15 degrees warmer in the workshop this coming winter - at no cost !!! Without your video, I wouldn't have ever thought of this, so a big (and warm !) thanks !!

Nice and simple !! I built a tiny wood stove from a Store (floor safe). After much work, I found I needed forced air to run it but a really nice build. I may just cut a hole in the bottom and do this. At least it will work and much better than wood I'm sure.

I gave you 10 thumbs up never mind One thumb up like a said yours is of both the best cause designing going

Gerry gravity fed waste oil heaters through a needle valve can be dangerous if left unintended I wonder if you should explain to your viewers why this is. Maybe introducing 12volts to run a oil pump and a timer and a thermostat incase the flame every goes out would be recommended.

I'd try cutting vents on the inside burn can with slots angled to spin the flame in a spiral effect to make it burn more efficiently.

If you set up your wood burning stove with a simple oil burner like this, don't put holes in the center can all the way around. Any holes that you face forward toward the Glassdoor will blow air and therefore Smokey oil flame at the glass door and smoke it up or send Flames out the door when you open it. You might just put tiny 22 caliber holes in the center can that faces the door and larger holes around the rest of the center can.

Give us a look at the back of the fire because it looks like you've got another pipe there

Forgot to ask where does the oil land in the tin on the top or down the side of the inner tube on to the base of the disc, hope I'm making sense. Alan.

This time you didn’t put the brake disc what is the brake disc for is it for holding the unit in place so doesn’t move around or is it there just the heat to the system when it gets hot I’ve been following your design design so far Kors is the best going and I’ve seen hundreds upon hundreds call designs with Forced air in yours by far is the best

Great watching you with exploring this type of waste oil burner. However, does this type of material (oil) smell inside the house as in your other videos shows you modifying and solid fuel burner/ heater.

Try running it without the dog food tin. And just the hole.. I got mine work well.

Hi Tepco Cycle Repair. The guys are getting better results with needle valves but the oil must be filtered. I think that the way to go might be a dosing pump / metering pump. The reason I say this is that these pumps aren't really influenced by temperature and viscosity (to a point.) You can set it for 2 litres per hour and that's all you get. With the valves as the temperature rise the flow increases. I will be posting videos on this soon. Cheers Gerry

Gerry's Waste Oil Burner interesting, thanks for the info!

Gerry, i made one of these using your design and it puts out a ton of heat but was smoking to much. So i increased the holes to 12 or 13 mm and added a bunch of em. This resulted in the fire just going out. so i welded a bunch back shut. This worked but back to smoking. I'm wondering if my elevation of 8500ft is having this effect due to the lack of oxygen. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hi Gerry, I've watched quite a few of your videos and I don't recall you speaking of this, so I'll ask. When you build your burner, does the size relationship of the burn pot and the intake flue matter, or you just go with what you have? I've also been looking at honeydo carpenter's work on rocket stoves and aircrete. You should take a look at his aircrete insulated exhaust flue. Seems very efficient. Anyways, that's it... Sláinte lad.

Gerry you need to work out how to deliver the oil, in one video u almost had it, but haven't seen it since. That gravity system is bloody dangerous, and you know that, if people build the cake tin burner, light it and walk away from it, that viscosity of the oil is going change fast and flow twice as fast, and it's close to the heater, so going to happen fast, and they will end up burning their shed or house down and it'll come back on you. Use a waste oil controller. Gerry you need to start looking at the blue flame heaters, they never smoke, burn waste oil blue, and are hotter than the blower type heater. Cheers Drip Fed

Can i use a cast iron gas stove and convert it to the oil stove?

Another master piece Gerry and so simple and uncomplicated.Quick question for you, In your stove have you a chimney damper fitted to deter too much heat exiting to the flue and is it lined with fire bricks or not.

@GerrysDiy

Hi John. I don't have a damper and my flue is single walled all the way to the roof so I get some heat back into the shed. The section through the roof is insulated to protect the roof and then above that a single walled section. I have 4 metres of flue and I get great draught. No Firebricks. I only have a waste oil burner running in the shed and if I were to heat the house on it I would simply convert an oil boiler and run domestic heating and hot water from that. Much safer. One of my older videos I used a different type of burner with a boiler and I heated 80 us gallons of water in about 1 hour to steam. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y3moldSCnpitebw.html.

Hi Harry. Once you introduce forced air you can control the burn even better because you already have control over the fuel. You will achieve a hotter burn but you can cut down on the fuel, regulate the air and make a more efficient setup. I will be making forced air waste oil heaters over the next couple of weeks. Here's my old forced air burner and quite a few people have made one of these and they work great. Over a mililion and a half views so it's quite popular too. kzread.info/dash/bejne/c51_xdpwl8vaeM4.html Hope this helps Cheers Gerry

smoke is not enough air, too much oil....same as an internal combustion engine...too rich..

adding forced air will melt the fire box. better not for many reasons not to use forced air. I am thinking about piping supply air from the outside to the bottom of the fire box, so the combustion uses outside air to combust. my thoughts on this is that if you use room air to make the combustion, then the room must draw in outside (cold air) into the room. Will there be a reaction that i have not thought about? Will this work better or will there be a negative result from this design?

Gerry, your a genius !!. I'm English, but live in France where you pay to get rid of waste motor oil !! After a few years of being a good boy, and oil changing my car every 7000 miles, I've ended up with loads of the stuff, and haven't ever quite know what to do with it !. I've also got a marine stove (from my days of living on canal boats) designed for diesel fuel oil, with an alarmingly similar burner to yours. I'm going to try it on a tad of waste oil and see what happens !. It does burn by vaporization, so as long as the fuel regulator can handle the potential muck in waste oil, I might have a warmer workshop this winter !!. I could, even, offer to remove other peoples waste oil for 1/2 the price it would cost them to get rid of it "officially" - warm workshop AND get paid for the fuel !!!!!!!!!!!!! If the marine stove isn't so good, I've also got a solid fuel stove sitting around "doing nothing", so, that might well get a "Gerry mod" !. What a brilliant multi problem solver !

Nice, seems to work well, what if you drilled another set of holes to give it more air?. Also saw in another of this working model you added a brake disc on top to give it extra heat.
