I have The Earth Stove pellet stove fireplace insert. Model # NF2000i
I have a brand new liner, coupler top hat etc... all spec per the owners manual. My chimney is about 30' tall.
Anyway, I have tried a few different brands of pellets and I notice the same results everytime.
Stove has low, 2 mediums and 1 high settings and a separate fan control to blow the hot air in the house.
On low I get barely luke warm air
On medium 1 I get warm air
On medium 2 the air is warmer
On high the air is hot.
After burning 1 40lb bag I notice I have a fair amount of soot in the pan and in the firebox. It also builds up on the glass door quickly.
If I have the stove on medium 2 or high it burns a complete bag in about 12 hours.
I have talked to other people and they tell me they can set their stove on medium and it cranks out heat and they burn 1 bag per day. I can also burn 1 bag a day but the air coming out of my stove is just warm and not enough to notice any heat unless you are standing right in front of it.
Per my owners manual it says to make sure the intake vent door is wide open if I am getting alot of soot and not alot of heat. My vent door is fully open.
Is there anything else I should check or adjust?
Should I call a professional to come over and check it out?
I would rather learn to do it myself but I don't know what to adjust.
I don't have any unburned pellets in the firebox. Just alot of soot.
It also seems like the room fan is very loud and even at its lowest setting it blows pretty hard.
