My parents have an older Napoleon insert in the home they are renting.
I've read the manual, and did a thorough cleaning on the stove.
There doesn't seem to be a method to increase actual combustion/burn time.
For instance, I can adjust the feed rate, the distribution blower speed and the damper.
But none of those seem to really increase combustion - obviously, the damper has some effect. But if I were to put the feed rate on 4 instead of 3, all I would get is more pellets which would eventually lead to a lot of unburned pellets piling up in the pot.
I've done the dollar bill test and that's fine - but the glass is black frequently.
