I have an Englander 28-3500. It is ran into the central plenum and the wood blower is hooked up to a relay to the main LP blower so that when the wood kicks on the LP blower kicks on. So I just spent the last hours reading 30 pages of threads and a lot about people say blowers shouldn't run all the time. I think my Tstat is set at 130 on and 90 off.
Should my blower run constant?

I have very little experience with this one - just put it in last weekend. However I did a test burn and the blower cycled on and off in about 20 - 25 second cycles. I did not have a good fire and did not fill it with wood, just a few pallet boards as a test burn... but it sounds like you have a thermostat problem.

Mine runs almost constantly. If is a hot fire it will run a long time. Sometime it will cycle off for 5 minutes and start up and run for a few minutes. Just depends how big of fire I got burning.
