Heat Setting | Approximate fuel consumption | Test |
# 1 fuel setting | 18 ounces per hour | 3 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 2 fuel setting | 24 ounces per hour | 4 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 3 fuel setting | 36 ounces per hour | 6 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 4 fuel setting | 48 ounces per hour | 8 ounces in a 10 minute test |
High | 72 ounces per hour | 12 ounces in a 10 minute test |
WOOD PELLETS: Fuel consumption will vary depending on fuel size | ||
# 1 fuel setting | 16 ounces per hour | 2.5 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 2 fuel setting | 30 ounces per hour | 5 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 3 fuel setting | 36 ounces per hour | 6 ounces in a 10 minute test |
# 4 fuel setting | 48 ounces per hour | 8 ounces in a 10 minute test |
High | 85 ounces per hour | 14 ounces in a 10 minute test |
These fuel consumption feed rates are an approximation. Each unit will vary with the type and size of the fuel that is being burnt. The most important feed rates to check would be the # 1 setting and the High setting to make sure that the low and high feeds are proper for the unit. If the feed rates are drastically different contact the factory for suggestions. Do not get alarmed if the feed rates are not the same as shown. As long as the low fire will stay lit and the high fire does not overheat the unit and shut it down the unit is performing as it should.
The unit is designed to adapt to different size fuels and consumption circumstances.
If you are experiencing different feed rates than shown you will need to set the fuel feed rate on a lower or higher setting to adjust for the differences in the fuel feed rate. The test weight of Corn varies from year to year and that alone will change the heat output of the unit. There is a fine tune adjustment that the Reseller can make to the circuit board if the low fire will not stay lit or is burning too hot. You will need to contact your local Reseller for this adjustment.
