New Thelin Parlour 3000 pellet stove since the spring...overall it has been working great..lots of heat...but since the cold has come...around 3-20 degrees at night I've turned up the stove's fan to mid postion and have kept the auger feed at the slowest. as a result I'm up to only 10 hours on a bag of Geneva pellets...I've adjusted the stove many times to try to get the hours up but not much has happened...I did however get it up to 14 hours on low on both settings...I'm just need to know if this is common with other Thelin owners. The stove also needs to be ashed out only on the right side in the firebox every bag or so..or the ashes will overflow into the pellet firebox and load up against the door...if the ashes where equally left on both sides this would be great..I've also notice when I'm burning in the mid settings the ash is larger and black in size...not fine and light grey as it does on the low settings..???...could this be the pellets or some adjustment in the stove...I'll add some pics of the ash later. I've also come to realize that I might have to check my house out in the spring...seems like I've noticed more drafts around my doors and windows..since the stove creates some type of vacuum. Overall this has been a learning venture for me..one thing the oil man misses me!!...Oil today is $3.28 a gallon..it has dropped here in mid Maine..
