New to the forum trying to figure out how to increase the burn time of a American harvest 6039. The stove is the later model with manual draft and a three button A B C panel. The heat output of the stove is great, no problems there. Currently running it on heat range 4, blower range 5. The unit is in a 1100 square feet underground home. I am running the fresh air duct inside the home, the exhaust is running horizontally outside using a 3 foot pipe. The fuel being used is somerset brand pellets.
My issue with the stove is I'm only getting at most 14 hour run time out of a 40 pound bag of pellets. I've been researching threads on here and will continue to do so for adjustment. I know the manual draft needs to be pulled out around 1 inch. My first plan of action is to slow down the auger feed rate. From what I understand an adjustment should be made and then taking 30 min or so to see the result before making another change.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks
