New member and new pellet user , after much research I purchased a Rika integra ii insert from Earth sense
I installed it . Couple of problems the convection fan setting is set at 100% is this correct or should I decrease the amount .there is absolutely no mention of this in any of the literature .then there is a screen that says pellets 001 any idea what that is, is it some sort of controller and if so what does it do ?
The software is the latest I believe 1.39 , with the remote pellet controller (thermostat)
Any help or links will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
 
i bought mine from there also. great machine. i called the shop and spoke to the someone that repairs them and he waked me through everything. he also sent me his repair booklet. IM me your email and ill scan it
 
Bill - I leave my stove set to 100% - though it is adjustable to 150% - I think this will increase heat output but will not be as quiet and **may** decrease motor life - not sure. Not sure about Pellets 001 - my stove has FU - which has a setting of either 1 or 2 - the only difference is in the cleaning cycle I believe. A setting of 1 performs a cleaning cycle every hour where setting to 2 has 45min cycle.
Hope this helps.
