Hello,
I have an Englander 25-PDV mfg 2007. Vented out through wall with thimble 3ft then straight up about 8ft. OAK installed.
My question is:
My bottom three settings are usually at 3 9 1. Why you ask? Well...It does not seem to matter how high I adjust the low burn air, the pot is still overflowing out the front toward the door with red hot pellets in the am. I have changed them to 4 6 1 and got even more overflow of red hot pellets. The higher the feed rate the more overflow. The low burn air adjustment does not seem to matter.
I gave the stove a very thorough cleaning this fall and replaced gaskets and such. Took off the blowers and cleaned the fans, screens, vent pipe, OAK is clear etc. It does not seem to matter what kind of pellets I burn either. I have never had any pellets "dancing" in the pot at a 9 low burn air setting either. When I clean the stove it does run a little better for 12 hrs or so. Then it is right back to the same problem. Is my combustion blower failing?
It keeps my house at about 70F set at 3 heat setting and 5 room blower. My house is 1000sq ft ranch house/one level. This is at about 10F outside. It just seems like it does not burn the pellets as thoroughly as it should?
Does your pot overflow out the front toward the door? Turning the glass black with soot?
Every 3-4 hours the pot is full again and I use a metal spatula to scoop most of it off to the side and close it up again.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
