How does your flame and blower work together when the stove is in room temp mode.? Mine has a large flame until it reaches room temp then it backs itself down and the blower will cycle on and off .Is this normal. There seems to be no in between. Hi or low. tia
 
Yep. Sounds right.
How quickly it gets to temp also depends how close you have the probe to the stove.
 
Sound right. Mine flames up and the the blower slowly gets to high, and then it cycle down to low. Make sure you have your heat distribution knob in between H and L and it will take care of itself. If you put it in Either H or L, it will come on and go off, I think the installer told me.

If you want it to just come on and stay on, just set it to H or L in Stove Temp mode.
 
Mine runs at a steady rate depending on how much heat is called for... no cycling of the room blower.

I found that placement of the room sensor is critical for proper operation. If it's too close to the stove or in the path
of the hot air, you will get high/low cycling. Sensor calls for heat, stove ramps up but blows hot air on the sensor fooling it
into thinking the room is up to the set point, burn idles down, sensor feels cold, burn ramps up again.....
