cruzmisl Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hi All, I'm wondering what is used to plug the holes for the polder, rotisserie and guru port when they're not in use? Thanks, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curly Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 I have pondered on that myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeDJ16 Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Well, from what I understand is the Guru port comes with some form of mortar type plug in them from the factory. You knock that plug out when you want to use the hole. The Guru comes with a silicone hole plug when you buy one. Only one hole for the rotisserie goes all the way through, so that leaves 1 rotisserie hole open and a polder hole open. I have no idea on those two. My plan was to take some high temp silicone and release agent to make my own. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcoliver Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 No need If your real anal about those types of things you can find some way to plug those holes with fire rated backer rod or something; however it hasn't affected me being able to regulate the temps even for very low cooks. Just think of it this way, if you can close all the dampers down and snuff out the fire then there must not be much air flow coming from those holes.

ThreeDJ16 Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hmm, I don't think we need to use the word anal in a thread talking about hole plugs! -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samantha Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 plugs I thought I read on this forum that each of the accessory manufacturers includes a special silicone plug made to fit the holes as they provide the specs to Dennis for the hole sizes. Also that there is a plug made from the refractory material inside the hole to punch out when you are ready to utilize the accessory. Dennis thinks of everything!

samantha Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 plug holes This is link to Dennis previous answer to this question. Now I sort of feel like the nerd in the class who has way to many answers. If I could only focus my memory on more personally usefull things like what I went to the store for. http://www.komodokamado.com/forum/viewt ... highlight= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcoliver Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Jason, I must remove the beer from my nose now thanks.. Not sure what Dennis was refering to, I did not get any plugs but don't really need them either. I suppose if you really wanted something Dennis would come up with it. He seems to have an answer for everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobdk Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Well, I just took another look at mine and here is what I found: Guru port - sealed with what looks like grout (though it may not be) Rotisserie - has some sort of metal socket that blocks the hole Polder - goes all the way through and has no plugs With that said if you plug the holes the fire does indeed go out so the polder tube must not let enough air in. If you really care you could probably make your own plug. -Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
