that manual don't have my unit on it.. I have no idea on the high limit... The house is cold again

Is this the right manual? http://www.heatmor.com/Uploads/42457_Heatmor_Response_Guts_053112.pdf

Do you have the gassification model? The manual for the gassification says that it has a high limit aquastat as well. I am confused as to what model you have that doesn't come with the high limit? It looks like all of their stoves do??? Can you find out why this is?

[roxann]

my model is ssr11 I saw it on your link  you sent me but my manual is way different....
my house is 59 temp on unit is 132 
I will ask my installer if he can take a look at this link and try to see if I have one.. He was here most of the day yesterday he said I didn;t have one...

Did Bruce show up? He told me yesterday that he would be over and that yes it has a high limit on the back of the stove, we agreed that it is either wired wrong or both the high limit and aqua-stat are defective and that it needs to be repaired as it's not good for the stove to constantly overheat!!!!!!!

[roxann]

no Bruce didn't come  over yesterday he said he was going to call mike from heatmor and get back to me... I don't understand why my house was toasty for a few days and unit was up to 180ish and now I'm lucky to get the temp to climb to 154 unreal

  I'm assuming that you are using the loading practices that Bruce discussed with you? Is the blower functioning, is it burning the wood up as you would expect or just sitting there and smoldering. I can't do a thing for you today and will be leaving for the weekend on a job in northern Vt. on Friday morning, if you need me to come up there the only day I have is thursday and it will require some juggling so please let me know ASAP.

[roxann]

yes I am loading it right.... blower still hasn't shut off wood is burning no smoldering.. temp went to to 123 I added wood and temp went down 10*

Wow, the more this evolves the more problems or potential problems we see.

Hopefully someone can get this straightened out soon

[Scott7m]

You may need to turn heat from stove off for a while and see if it can catch up

[slimjim]

I would expect a temp drop right away after a fresh load of wood, it should in theory start to rise now, lots of cold wood will drop the temp briefly, No further word from Bruce or corporate? your feelings about thursday?

[roxann]

bruce just called me back not sure what his plan is... I have to call him back in one hour.. my wood is stored in my basement the wood I used this morning to get the fire going was dry kindling (lots of it) with a few big pieces on top the stove is at 160 now but the wood is now smothering and not smoke coming out..fan is running .. I'd love for you to come out I'll call heatmor to see what they will do

[roxann]

scott posted that I should shut heat off where do I do that/

[roxann]

is that number 41 on the manual

[roxann]

I think #39 in manual would be the high-limit  controller (aquastat) with wires that come out of it... if so I tested them yesterday when unit called for water I had power on all lines.. Could this be junk on unit and cause the issues?
