I inherited a Thompson E with the purchase of a house and it is blowing tepid air when lit and the auger is on high. After cleaning there was no change. I looked for manuals online but have not been able to find one. Are there any suggestions on what might be wrong and how to fix it?

Thank you!!
 
Does it say anywhere if it is manufactured by Glow Boy or Dansons Group or CCI or Thelin ? Found another site that had Thompson stoves listed by Thelin company years ago, Looked like the Thelin Gnome or Parlor stove...https://thelinco.com/about/
.Not much info out there as you say..

Take some pictures, also of the controls and inner workings, and post.
Determine if it is a negative or positive pressure stove.
