Anyone done any testing on feed rate settings to pellet consumption? For instance, setting 1 burns 40lbs./day while setting 3 burns 50lbs./day, etc..
I hope to do so in the future, but the temperature changes here in OH have prevented me from testing. I seem to get by most of the time with feed rates of 1-3. It's warm enough to cycle our furnace most of the day/night. That being said, I plan to run it warmer next season when I'm not burning $5 bags. In the meantime, if the burn difference between setting 1 and 4 is only 10 pounds per day, I should just crank it up and enjoy the heat now. I haven't paid enough attention thus far having only burned 17-18 bags.
Anyway, just curious if others have generic info for their settings. If so, I would be interested in what you've discovered. If not, I will provide info for my PDVC in the near future!
