Air on temperature if it is used on that controller.

Oh ok.. I do have a AOT button. It is set on 1, which is the factory setting. But I don't know what that setting does. I just heard leave it alone.

It sounds like a tornado in my living room.
Try 6 or 7 then.
I have.. Even with a heat setting of 3. The blower eventually ends up on max.
More importantly there is something wrong. I should be able to run the stove on any heat/blower combination and not have it supposedly over heat.
I'm not convinced it is "over" heating. Could be a bad batch of temp sensors?

I have the same stove, and on setting (feed rate)1-1(blower speed) and 2-2 it runs with blower on quiet and never really hear it, then when i turn it up to 3-3 or 4-4 on cold nights i mean in teens outside, then the blower once in a while with go max it seems for a couple minutes, but i always thought that was normal as i thought it was just that the stove temp got too hot and the blower kicked in too cool the stove and restore it to a 3-3 level, as on the numbers its still set to 3-3 even thought the blower changes speed to higher to what i thought was to cool the stove down.

I didn't see it in the manual, but then I only read through it quickly.

Pulled from the parts section on the website.
PU-4C442 Convection Blower (6 lbs. each)
$130.98
Convection (Room Air) Blower. 140 cfm.
EDIT: Looks like a larger fan is used on 2002+ and "deluxe" models? That fan is 250cfm.
I don't know what I have...

Be careful as that applies to other than your EP which is not one of the listed units that have a deluxe setup.
Wish Mike would chime in.
The 140 CFM should be fine if the airflow curve is correct in the controller. You haven't left any of the exhaust channel covers open have you that might allow hot exhaust gases to bypass the heat exchanger.

good thing for this post bc all this time i thought it was normal for the blower to higher by itself to cool down the unit for a couple mintues in the setting on 3-3 or higher. hmm interested to see what mike says

Yea your right. I went back and re-read it. Mine is 140cfm.
Mike will get this figured out. I'm sure he is busy with lots of other stuff.
No, I put the exhaust inspections covers back just like they were.
pelletstoveman said:i had the same issue when i first bought the stove.
worked with mike and loosened the thermocoupler ( not sure if correct term) bolted on top of the exhaust blower and added a washer underneath. if i keep it loose it works fine.
SmokeyTheBear said:Convection blower speed control table change in the stove's controller can also do that.
imacman said:SmokeyTheBear said:Convection blower speed control table change in the stove's controller can also do that.
Not sure what you mean Smokey, but increasing the LBA will help too.....only issue is that raising it too high just results in sending the air through the heat exchanger too fast and right up the exhaust.
GrahamInVa said:I'll try loosing that bolt and see what that does. I'm not really likening this "fix" though.
Thank you for the correction teacher.Without you I would never have been able to spell. Am I banned from recess? (post was from cell, they have a mind of their own these days)GrahamInVa said:FYI - It's Harman not harmon.
