Would adding a Manual Damper to my Non-cat, High-Tech EPA Stove improve its performance/burn times? As I have stated before, my burn times seem way too short, ...
Rob, I take it you haven't been able to find and adjust the primary and secondary air controls, which is by far the best way to resolve this problem. I have...
Thanks for the input, John. My Stove doesn't have secondary air controls - that is a "fixed" control. Would this change your viewpoint at all? I was told that ...
... Yes, most stoves seem to have fixed secondary air supplies, and no, that doesn't change the situation. What happens is that, because the emissions tests...
-Hi yall, I have one of these new style stoves, and wood seems to burn way too fast. Theres an opening in the back of my stove that vents the fire (not to...
One way to tell for sure if you need a damper is to check the draft with a MagnaHelic or a draft guage. The manufacturer will be able to tell you what the ...
Frank, Thats what happen to my Lopi patriot last year when I bought it. And John told me to close off part of secondary air draft and it works fine. Roger ...
Andy, If you are going to attempt to adjust the air supply, you have to figure out exactly where the air enters the stove and where it goes from there. Don't...
Franklin, In my experience most manufacturers don't have much of a clue about how their stoves work beyond the lab and the factory gates. As I said in a...

John, I used stainless steel screws, and closed some of holes in the secondary air tubes off. What do you think? Roger. John Gulland <john@...> wrote: ...
... I don't know what the impact of doing that would be. Yes, it would reduce flow and make the stove controllable, but it would also at least slightly change...
Andy, I think I did offer some advice. You say you have found the secondary air inlet. So, can you block part of it or not, just to test the idea? John...
John, I know this my not be the way to do it . But it works ok now, and you know the old saying if its not broke don't fix it. Roger ... I don't know what the...
John, The easiest way to reduce the sedondary air is this. Remove the tubes. There is a hole in the manifold at the end of each tube. I used a sheet metal ...
Frank, What an interesting solution. I had never thought of limiting flow at the tube ends. Can you describe the sheet metal plug? I don't quite get the...
