HeatMaster / Re: stove problems
« on: December 08, 2013, 07:23:26 PM »
I pulled ash pan and can see air tube,  looks to be clear.  There is a few ashes next to it but top 3/4 was clear.  Bypass looks to be clear as well but it is hard to see up there, so not for sure.  nothing obvious tho.  I am burnibg some dry 2x4s with the oak and it is working better but it doesn't seem to want to burn the oak.  I am still not sure what is going on.  Could the controller be messed up.  It was giving me an error of E2.
thanks again
Ross

about the same amount of wood, maybe a little more.  we are in a cold spell right now in Wisconsin.  So extra consumption is expected. How would I check for heat loss in the pipe?  I have noticed that the gasket around chimney on the roof is decaying and in rough shape.  Thanks for the help

hey guys
I am new to this forum and have a few questions.  I have a heatmaster mf5000 and am having some troubles with it. I ve been battling it for a couple weeks.  First I was getting error e2 and would have to reset controller to keep it running.  Then it seemed to get a little better for a few days.  Now It doesn't want to keep up.  Temp is set to 170 with a 10 deg. diference.  I tried 180 with a fifteen difference and now stove doesn't seem to keep up.  I can fill it and get the temp up to 170[ I changed it back as this seemed to work good last year] but by morning or evening it falls to around 90-110.  There is usually a couple chunks of wood still burning just not getting enough heat.  I never used to have to split the wood first but I did split some and it seemed to help some.  I am burning oak cull logs from last year.  Any idea what is going on or what I can do different?  Thanks for the help
