Re: [T3] Foaming heater channels


<x-flowed>Ick, ick, ick, and I'm being polite.

Why? Ignorance of what that space was used for.
Tired of getting too hot and not understanding
how to shut off the control boxes.

Chemicals won't work, you have to use mechanical means.

Hook up vacuum cleaner to one end and break it up
as much as possible with whatever you can get in
there.

The long serrated pieces of aluminum that comes on
boxes of kitchen plastic wrap should be flexible
enough, and with their teeth pulling against the
material, it should cut into the stuff.

I just cleaned up some of this stuff from my roof,
and it cuts easily, so just about anything will
cut it. I used a metal caulk knife's edge to cut
the stuff.

A drill bit pushed (not in a drill motor) would
break through it enough to get the plastic wrap
cutter into the material.

Uh, don't put the vacuum on blower, unless you
want a face full of the stuff.

heater channels under the doors with that expanding foam

Anyone have a clue about why he would have done that? And last of all, how would I go about cleaning it out???
