Had the stove for a few weeks. Brand new, mfg in March 2009 (I know). Basement install with OAK. Newer daylight basement with a 4' concrete and with standard framing from the top of the foundation wall to the ceiling. Length of OAK is about 5' and length of exhaust is just under 7' or so. Both exit the side of the house.
Harman center vent kit with 4" pellet pipe to the cap. OAK is 3" PVC. Checked the OAK to insure there were no obstructions.
Got my magnehelic yesterday and gave it a try last night. Have it balanced and zero'd to insure proper readings. Readings taken with a cold stove (ok per manual) on test mode.
With the draft adjustment pot all the way down (ccw) the low draft is reading about .49" and the high draft is about .54" Per the manual, this suggests that my low draft is too high and my high draft is on the low end of the range. What gives? Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated
Edit - Results don't change with the OAK removed...
