The young lad that rides on my bus and I helped get a small evaporator plans to rotate the pan daily. It is a Leader 2 x 4 evaporator,with the supreme style pan that has mini flues in the middle. Just wondering if we could attach the rail gasket with the carpet tape so it wouldn’t fall into the arch every time he lifted the pan,or would it not handle the heat and just disintegrate? Rails have firebrick and refractory cement right up to them,so would not have direct contact with the flames
