Good Points

Mechanically very well made machine, very economical to operate. Good heat output, strong motors, good overall system.


Bad Points

Control panel better in some ways on the older machines, not the switches themselves, but the panel cover itself. the newer panel flexes and the buttons break after extensive use or it has been used by someone overzealous in their attempts to manipulate the controls. It also requires cleaning every 2 - 3 years and a qualified service technician to properly set the Air Damper Solenoid. Cheap for what you don't pay in fuel costs at $5.60 a gallon for #1 heating oil.


General Comments

The Monitor 422 is a great product that I would still buy today, but they quit making them in 2004. The newer heater the Monitor M-2200 doesn't have the Air Damper Solenoid anymore and is an even better product. Don't let someone tell you that you don't need the air damper ring that goes on the flue as it does have a purpose. It is good to have serviced as it will up your efficiency saving you fuel by producing more usable Btu's (heat)
