I have been burning for 2 1/2 seasons with an eko-40 with 500 gallon storage. My primaries are set at 3/8 " secondaries at 3 1/2 turns fan opening at 60 % and fan speed at 70%. It seems to run good it gets up to temperture and charges the tank no problem. I usually run it at 185. burning mixed hard wood year and a half old stored in basement since fall. I don't have a moisture meter but I think it's pretty dry. I notice I have alot of unburned coals mixed with the ash when I clean out the lower chamber about every two fires...is this normal? Also there seems to be alot of white smoke coming out of the chimney...steam? Maybe the wood is not as dry as I think. Just wondering what settings other eko owners are using.
