Feeling the heat and loving the show... Lol

Might just be something in the picture but the flue thermometer looks to me like its well into the too hot zone !! Anyone else see that?
Yep us too. We turn on TV and watch the stove... Lol funny thing is , we didn't watch our old one that often.
The pipe thermometer is about 475 in the pic. Stove was about 600.... I had cut air down and it gets a little hotter then levels off

I'm still trial and error on the stove . It's totally different from our old Cat stove.
It's hard to get use to the temp rising and I'm cutting air down. But, that's when the secondaries really kick in and it burns for a while! I just get air adjusted and leave it alone until the next load. We love it

Some of the guys here on the forum say that the stove temp is usually around 600 - 700 . That seems pretty much true. I don't usually see my flue temp over 400-475. I'm not sure what the flue temp should be?

Where do you place your thermometer on your pipe? Mine is about 8 inches about the stove top. If I put it about 2 ft high it runs around 300 325
Thanks, as I said its a bit different from our old stove. But still learning. I asked a lot of questions here on the forum before we bought this stove. It will take a little getting use too. So far so good.
All these guys were a big help. Hard to know how these stoves will work sitting in a showroom.
We don't turn the TV on, the light from it messes with the ambiance. We did the same with the old stove. In some ways it was nicer because the doors were open. Like camping in the living room.
The guys are a huge help, and the Sistahs ain't bad either

I love my summit also. We don't have a blower but it still gets the upstairs good and toasty . The more I learn how to burn it the better it's getting
