The purpose of the four uptakes in a blast furnace is to allow for the passage of hot gases produced during the iron smelting process. These gases include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen, which are byproducts of the combustion of coke with hot air. The uptakes help to release these gases from the top of the furnace and direct them to the gas-cleaning system for processing and reuse in the process.

Can you turn off water to oil furnace and use an electric water heater in its placethe furnace supplies hot water and baseboard heatbut i have a pellet stove to heat the houseso i would like to use?

Yes you can do that. I had an oil fired furnace that also heated the hot water in a coil inside the furnace. I got an electric hot water heater and had a plumber disconnect the coil in the furnace and hook up the electric hot water heater. No problems after four years.
