2012-2013 Heating Season Convection Temps for Various Pellet Brands
Please take with a grain of salt as your mileage may vary. Unless otherwise noted, all temps taken on a clean stove set to #3 of 5. Stove has no provisions for feed trim or combustion air trim at that setting. Stove does have a half fast damper, but no adjustments were made.
Temperatures were read with an ultra precision $5.00 Harbor Freight instant read thermometer mounted 1 inch out from the lower left center heat exchanger tube.
Reading were taken after a minimum 1 hour run at setting #3 with most being an average of many reading including overnight at setting #3. (not a clean stove at that point, but started out as one)
Heat output with this US Stove 5660 is all about pellet size, length, and density.
Please keep the floggings to a minimum as this was all done for fun!
Temperatures are in degrees Fahrenheit.
