New Italian wood pellet stoves either Ducted with Temp of ducted air shown or Hydro, see video on yo

Hello

MCzed video

Interesting, We now have a number for ducted air temperature for a wood pellet stove!!

Vid shows duct work temperature of 80 Degrees C or 176 Degrees F , So the 150 Degrees F I measured in our duct work is completely reasonable

Looks good!

Also looks like a max of 8 meters which is 26.25 feet, our ducting is alot less too

Hi CrowBean


How do you like the EGO?? How large is the Hopper??

The Ego and Star's innovative Active System instantly adjusts the combustion air to compensate for minor variations in pellet size and density. The stove determines the perfect amount of air to obtain the best possible combustion in any installation configuration.

The top mounted user-friendly LCD display control panel monitors the internal functions and provides valuable information to keep your stove running at peak performance. No doubt about it, this is a smart system!

Other features include:

pre-programmed user selections

optional remote control

self-cleaning burner box

easily removable ash drawer

large hopper capacity

gentle flame patterns for enjoyable viewing

quiet operation to give you a stove that is a joy to own and operate.

Hello

These 3 below are ductable with 60 lb hopper. I wish they had a bigger hopper!

Smart Pellet Stoves with Deluxe Comfort Air®
The Club, Suite, and Musa models come with Active Air
or Multiair, which includes Comfort Air®. The patented
Comfort Air® system works in concert with the Active
Air system to provide yet another level of smart heating.
These duct-able stoves allow you to duct heat through
walls to rooms up to 25’ away.
Comfort Air® extracts the heat produced by the stove
with unequalled efficiency. Its unique two-fan system
allows you to independently adjust the heat output to the
room and to the rear duct system. It is quiet in operation,
and does not require maintenance.
The user-friendly remote control has just
a few buttons to control the versatile
timer that is already pre-set with 60
daily and 10 weekly programs.
The Club (shown above) is available with heat retaining
ceramic panels in bordeaux, white, or sand.
The Suite (shown on back cover at the top) comes in
architectural ceramic in bordeaux, pepper white, or
mustard.
The Musa (shown on back cover at the bottom) slender
and understated, comes with steel side panels in
bordeaux, white, black, or silver (same as the Ego on
the opposite page).

The EGO is being installed in 3 weeks after i build the hearth out of stone. I will definitely update you now that i am addicted to this forum and pellets! The ductable units are very nice but i end up getting the ego, install, tax, ash vac, 2 cleanings for 4000. The ductable units start at 4500. Alittle too out of my price range after install and other goodies but a great design. I am very excited about the features and the possible 90 percent efficiency.

Sounds like a very nice unit! Does it use US standard 3" pellet flue pipe?

I am interested in the ducting because we had a heated debate about it.
Ducting is not against the current codes but having a flange like these stoves have make it more acceptable.

From Manual
CONNECTIONS OF HOT AIR DUCTS FOR
SUITE/CLUB/MUSA COMFORT AIR MODEL
Once the stove is in position, you can begin installation of the hot air
ducts.
Comfort Air stoves are provided with an air deflector E as standard. This
means that the rear flange for hot air outlet is connected to this
deflector, which allows the hot air to be directed to the right and left of
the room, in case the channelling of hot air is not desired.
If you wish to channel the hot air, the deflector E must be removed.
Connect the soundproofed connection F (optional) that makes the
output from square to round 3â€, and then make the various connections
through the wall using only “type B†vents. To transport hot air inside a
wall use the proper “type B†oval ducts suitable to be walled in (see
connecting examples in the figures on the right)
The air outlet heating air can reach very high
temperatures, up to 180°C: it is therefore necessary
to use “type B†vents where it may come into contact
with flammable surfaces or that are affected by the
temperature (e.g. discolouration of paint, ducts for
electric cables, plasterboard, etc.); it is also
necessary to protect people and animals from
voluntary or accidental contact. In any case comply
with the regulations and laws in force in the region
where the product is installed.
It is advisable to provide insulation along the entire
route of the pipe to decrease dispersion and increase
the heat energy in the environment.
A pipe which is inserted in the wall must be properly insulated so that it
does not lose heat and so that air outlet is silent.
8 meters is the maximum suggested length for
ducting hot air in other ambients.
The recirculation of air in the room occurs using the perforated sheet
metal placed in the rear of the stove C and the holes placed on the
metal sheet bottom
It is possible to choose the volume of air you wish to discharge from the
front part and from the rear part of the stove in an independent
manner, by adjusting the ventilation power directly with the remote
control.

You should really get the service manual for your stove. It can be really valuable for maintenance!

[Griff726]

Why not the Oak? I ask because I'll be putting a piazzetta in next month and I'm deciding on how to go about the install.
