    Nice!!!! Looking forward to your thoughts and reviews!


    Your install is a nice one. You just have a minor set back. Be patient. It will all get worked out. Between us and the staff at Fahrenheit. You'll be in business like the rest of us.

    I'm a man of patience, somewhat. Furnace not functioning as it should, plow truck down and about 8inches of snow in my big driveway which I'm shoveling by hand. No snowblower and the princess gone to work this morning with a face to kill. Me sleeping in did not help any. Gotta go and fix my toys or shovel the driveway(wish I was at work this moment). Get that out of your mind I say to myself LOUDLY!

    A few suggestions… make sure the ash dump rod is always completely closed or your stove will soot up (the stove loses vacuum).

    Run the stove on #4 or #5 for 15-20 minutes every morning especially if you've had it running on low heat settings. This will burn off most of the soot that comes from a low burn. Keeps the stove cleaner.

    Keep the valve in the air intake open about the width of a pencil… that's it. If you need more air to keep the flame lively your stove is plugged with ash.

    Every week you should remove the little steel flaps that are located on the back side of the stove and vacuum out the ash while gently tapping on the stoves back wall with a hammer (after you've removed the Cera-brick). This will keep the stove from getting plugged with ash… then use the LBT after every ton and you'll have a happy stove.

    Thanks for the advice krooser. The ash dump rod is the rod that moves the plate directly below the burn pot and the versagrate plate? If so yep that's closed up tight. I'm trying to keep it a daily routine to run it on level 5 for a little bit each day. Air intake is set exactly like you stated and im hoping to get into a nice routine of cleaning each week after i get the hang of this thing. :)


    Wait.... what's an LBT?
