Enviro EF2-I FRUSTRATION!!!

Jad what setting-adjustments have you made/tested?

The flame is big, but is it lazy and tall, or more torch like? they should feed more on higher settings, but if the flame is big they should be burning.

Just a quick question, Do you have outside air installed?

The MINI has a trim feature only on the lowest setting. I have to use on the slowest auger setting when using on setting 1 or the pellets drop to fast, smother the fire and over fill the pot. Any other setting (2-5) runs like a champ.

Strange that the fire burns high and right but still over feels the pot. I have the outside air on mine, but I don’t have any vert on my piping so that’s why I made sure to add it.

I have an EF-2 Free Standing. I love it.

It is 24 degrees F out this morning. The living room (stove room) is a comfortable 70 degrees.
Current settings are:
Mode--------------Auto
Dial a fire --------12:30 position
Blower Speed--- 10:00 position
Slide Damper----1/2 way out.

Flame is running about 5" above burnpot. The flame is clean and active. The unburned pellets are just starting to dance in the burnpot.

Heat is pumping into the room.

In the past I have had adjustment problems with the ashpan not being sealed to the bottom of stove.
This allows excess air to leak into the firebox.

Also I had a bad combustion blower.

The combustion blower(one on the left of the stove) runs at a constant speed and draws exhaust gasses from the fire box.
If it is running slow or the vent is not sufficient you could have an exhaust flow problem.

Another area of concern would be your outside air supply. In a mobile home I believe it is mandatory to have an outside air supply.
If that source is blocked/compromised you would have a bad burn happening.


Hearthtools.com has a great troubleshooting section for Enviro stoves. Check it out.

Additionally......read your owners manual. Make sure your stove is installed and connected like the manufacturer suggests.

If your stove is installed correctly. And all blowers are running correctly. You should be getting plenty of heat.

Let us know how you make out.

Is this a Brand new stove i assume? i've gone thru a month of Hell with the auger timer on my used EF3.Wasn,t getting enough pellets to stay running,after bumping up to aaan updated 3 sec timer, all probs have been solved and couldn,t be happier with the stove,although a bit bigger would have been nice.Maybe you need my old 1 sec timer to slow the feed rate.lol..Good luck,they can be aggravating when not working proper.
Temp outside this morn, 21.5 F, temp inside a steady 80.2F

If You have outside air there should be a second section of tube running to the outside, It connects to the bottom center of the rear of the stove and is approx. 1 1/2 inch in diameter.

Outside air is a required setup in a mobile home, call your dealer and demand it be installed.
however for now try cracking a window near the stove and see if this fixes your stoves flame characteristics.
Mobile homes are usually built very tight and your stove cant get enough combustion air.

Andy is correct. I would call the dealer and get them
out there to do it right. You paid to have it done right
and the OA is required for mobile home installs.
This information should be in your manual if you want
to show the dealer.
