Hey guys, forgive me if this is posted somewhere already, tried to look and came up with nothing like Im about to explain. I recently bought a Enviro EF2. It was 30% off and it fit the bill so I figured Id give it a try. The dealer told me it was discontinued but didn't really explain why, Id like to know if someone happens to know.
Anyway I got home, read the manual and installed it. I went direct horizontal vent. I used that high temp RTV silicone and am pretty sure all my connections are good. Fired her up for the first time and noticed a smoke smell. Wasn't really sure where it was coming from but didn't think a whole lot of it. As the night went on it got worse and worse. On further investigating I can smell it the most blowing out the front with the warm air. I was under the assumption this shouldn't really smell. Now I know they can have a smell if their new but the dealer had already burnt it a few times. Im just curious as to why it would be coming out the front like this.
I apparently have a sensitive nose cause I had my parents and neighbors over and they say they can notice it but that its not overwelming like Im making it out to be. It does bother me tho to be honest and If its normal Im not sure if Ill ever get use to it. It almost gives me a headache.
PS I have a CO detector and fire alarms and non have gone off, I dont see a smoke haze or anything either and when I put my face in front of it I can smell the smoke but it doesn't burn my nose or eyes like real smoke does. Im at a loss here.
Thanks in advance.
