Flue pan washer?

[heus]

Anyone have any pics of a flue pan washer? Or would a bubbler essentially perform the same function of dealing with niter?

I don't think a bubbler will deal with nitre like the washer will. I forget which one, but one of the maple equipment catalogs I have shows a flue pan washer. It is'nt anything more than a larger version of a syrup pan washer. It has the rotating, or "spinner" spray heads that continually spray the pan. Would'nt be hard at all to build something like that. Its amazing what moving permeate water will clean off a pan!
