If you can't get your living room above 59 degrees in an average size home, there is an issue that is not being mentioned.
dug out the thermo. Stove was relit at when i got home. Stove has been running for about 1.5 hours.
Flue temps 325*
Stove top temp 530*
Stove Damper at approx 1/4
Stove blower at 80%
How drafty is your home? A 2.25 cu ft stove should be able to get that living room above 59 degrees.
House is VERY open concept and on a slab. The stove has to heat much more than just the living room, just a WAG but id say that minus the bedrooms the stove heats 1200 sf maybe. I think thats the issue as to why i cant get enough heat in the house. There arent that many drafts really. All double pane windows. ceiling / walls are insulated. House was wrapped in tyvec and resided just last year.
