Feed setting 1

Is this a trick question?

Feed setting 1 would use the lest pellets.

Feed setting 1... Fan setting 9... But you wont heat 1400 sq ft.... Gonna take time and tweaking..... Time and Tweaking.....

 

[esuitt]

yeah, I can honestly tell you that it is not going to heat 1400 sg ft on feed 1.
2 story with almost 1500 sg ft and I have to crank it up on the cold days to 5 and that gives me about 12 hours burn time.

First of all, pretty much any stove set to the absolute lowest heat setting isn't going to perform well....that's the toughest thing to try with any pellet stove.

My advice is to use at least heat setting 2, and fan setting of 7 (difference between 7 and 9 is negligible....just uses more power). Lower button settings should be set at factory, so start with those.

I agree with the rest of the guys, you wont get much done on the lowest settings unless its about 35 or 40 degrees outside. I have a Quad Insert, and I run on its low setting most of the time but when those real cold nights come along I have to kick it up to the next setting or the room will be chilly. Another thing that running on the lowest setting will do and that is your firebox will get very dirty very fast. At least that is what happens with my Quad.

Same as my Harman P38. Heat set at #1 will allow a 40 lb bag to burn for 36 hrs but just warm air coming out.

Gio, come to Syracuse. I wanna show you the heat from a stove at 1lb per hour. I'll buy you lunch if you stop by! Cant pay for the gas though.

I won`t doubt you but it`s outta my price range.

No no, I dont wanna sell it to you, I just want to show it to you. Great excuse for a road trip. Next two months are the only nice ones in Syracuse.
