Merry Christmas to All,
1)
I just installed a Pellet Master PM 5000 in my garage (Got it for free) My garage dimensions are 26' X 24" with 12' ceilings. (Finally, Just Measured It) It was 27 Degrees outside and 27 Degrees inside my garage when I started the stove. After 3 hours the temperature inside the garage reached 53 degrees and outside it remained a constant 27 degrees. Outside temperature remained the same, I kept the stove on high for 2.5 hours more but the garage would not get any warmer. I would think that the garage would have gotten warmer. In this application the thermostat was not employed. Any Ideas?
2)
Also, on another experiment I hooked a thermostat up to the stove and when the stove would kick off the fan would still run as I understand it should. However, I ended up with smoke in the garage. What do you think?
