Us Enviro folk don’t get a lot of brain activity on these repair forums. I’m going to be switching to Quads and Harman’s if things don’t pick up.

I had someone call today telling me there stove wasn’t burning right. I got there and the fire was perfect. When I asked the problem they said last Tuesday it was warmer in their kitchen than it was today. I wanted to flip. Maybe the 30 degree difference in outside temperature has something to do with it.

That could be it, lol. I only started this thread as a joke. I’m sure there’s a lot more Harmans and Quads sold than there are Enviro’s. Hence the 50 to 1 ratio. I can tell you the biggest problem we have is auger motors. We’ve sold a couple hundred stoves in the last two years and I’ve replaced 10 this season. I have a pile of gearboxes. I wish I could just buy the motors.Maybe people do not want to admit they own a Enviro?

I had an Enviro mini loved the stove. But like most stoves eventually they habe issues. I also have a Vista Flame in the basement 70,000 BTU but only used it one season. No matter what stove you have after time something's going to go bad just like an oil furnace. If you keep up on all the post on this forum you can see there are users that have issues with every manufacturers stove eventually
I've had a couple of Jamestowns, couple of Whitfields, and a couple of Enviros. They all were older models with typical age-related problems. Currently run an EF2i that appears to be well designed and well built. Not problem free but easy to diagnose and repair.
