Alderlea T5 vs T5 LE

[Grinnell]

I have a circa 2009 T5, been away from this forum for awile and noticed the T5 LE big differences?

Thanks

Welcome back. The main difference is that the secondary air is now controlled by the EBT. The LE burns cleaner, with some more secondary air during peak burn. This tapers off as the fire settles down due to the barometric nature of the EBT2. I haven't burned in one, but I did help install a T6 LE and have compared its burn with our 2008 T6. Our stove may put a bit more heat up the flue than the LE but they burn similarly.

And cost, lol. But that’s more of an industry thing vs T5 thing.
