@@godgivesyouyourpotential7152 no just side wells to vacuum out.

@@TCRTechLife so far so good. I need to do another video showing it!

I’m about to buy this stove. Hope it works. A lot of bad reviews

Changed my mind- going with better rated brand

​@@jim82140that works too just keep in mind everything breaks down if it's is not probably taken care of I have seen $6000 systems fail and are down for weeks I have seen cheaper systems like this fail and are down for weeks ECT

@@EmOsPaZcAt666 not yet. I need to clean my own fans. Lol but I’ll make a video when I do! I have two pallets worth of pellets through mine so far. It probably needs it.

@diaryofageek OOOOOOO goodie 😅 I've got... I think that an a little more an all I've been doing is panicking because I can't find any instructual videos for that. Maybe a side panel or the back but... I've popped the side off and all I'm seeing is wires and the back is a bit difficult. My bigger fear is the exhaust pipe and that needing to be cleaned... I will be looking for your Ton cleaning

@@gabemtz727 lol at this point I’m considering it. 😆

@@diaryofageekdon’t consider it lol. Make it happen

@@Ur_bro_Cylas few hours. But you have to run it on high for at least one hour. Otherwise it will just smell every time you fire it up. It lets off a decent amount of smoke if you do it in the house. I had to open windows and put a fan in my back door 😆

I am not happy with my Tweeinot. I’ve had it 1 year to the date. It quit working 33 days after I got it. TSC would not take it back, so I called Grand Teton and they shipped out the parts, but the mother board was 4weeks out. Anyways, I can never use mine on Eco1. It will never restart. Last night it would not maintain the house temp. It never ramped up the pellet flow to bring the temp up. So, I’ll be shopping for a Harman after Christmas. Sorry, I’m no help, but it looks like an issue.

@@RyanWaits-g4u only reason would be if your room temperature is above the set point.

In my testing your Exhaust temp should be in the 275-425 degree point. 275 being P4 and a low flame. anything higher than 425 or so is kind of wasting heat out the exhaust, and even around the 275 point is almost too low. Mine runs on ECO2 P3 24-7 it will run on P3 until room temp is made then goes down to P4 automatically to "hold" the temp. and mine has the white ash on the back panels. The buildup is hard to prevent, it also depends on pellets. I vac my burn pot out about once a week (every weekend) i think i have stuff dialed in and have decent pellets. I think this is about as good as we can get with this type of stove.

if it's this stove the "exhaust fan" is what kicks into high gear every once in a while and "stirs" the pot. Where do you see the thick ash? in the two side bins around the burn pot or in the bottom of the burn pot? Its pretty normal for these to build up brick like ash in the burn pot.. as long as you don't let it go so long that the burning pellets start to cover up the top line of holes in the back of the burn pot. This hard ash also can get better or worse depending on the pellets you use. I don't really have good advice, I have gotten lucky with the pellets I get from my local tractor supply (every tractor supply often supplies local aka different pellets). I would suggest just getting a few bags of different kinds and clean after each, see which is best. Sorry i know thats not super helpful... :-)

You say about all the complaints and issues that people are having on tractor supplies website you say that it's linked towards not knowing how to use the equipment or is this thing trash

@@TCRTechLife it’s not trash. But it’s not a tank either. These are middle of the road stoves. But the touchscreen and all of the setting options we have on these makes it super easy to accidentally make them run like crap. You would think with the smart controller that you would have to know less about the stove to run it, but I found it’s quite opposite. Some of the dumber stoves out there just have a knob and you set how much heat you want it to output….. that’s it. On these smart stoves, to get the heat output correct the way you want, you have to adjust airflow, feed rates, etc. and things like outside temperatures or pellet quality or how dirty the stove is changes those settings constantly. Versus just turning a knob a little bit to correct it.

@@rashidjohnson7112 yes, I can’t include pictures in comments here. But yes just like they show. I can send you a pic somehow if needed

it would be different between us.. the settings can change with pellet types, length of flue, cold air intake (hooked up or not) even outdoor temperature can cause you to need to adjust things. Make sure your flame looks proper, check out this video, its not our pellet stove model but its a great video to help understand what the flame should and should not look like. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXaunoeqpat_hK8

@@Whuckfisle you will be hard pressed to find a stove without china parts. 😬 but so far so good. I heated with only pellets last year. I’m not sure how often I actually cleaned it. Wasn’t anything crazy but I burn good pellets. If I was running crappy pellets I would probably clean daily. But I believe I was just sucking the ash out every Friday when I got home from work. Then monthly tearing the heat baffles out, scraping the pot and what not. I’ve never had what people call the Cadillac a Harmon so I don’t have anything else to compare to.

@diaryofageek I'm looking at them but just cannot justify the 5x cost of Harmon. I'm sure they're better but if this does it's job for a minimum of 5 years to justify it's cost then it's worth it. Just didn't want to buy one from tractor supply and have it fail within a year

@@Whuckfisle My aunt just bought a new wood burner Same time my mom got the pellet stove Front of wood burner says USA stove company On the back it says MADE in China

@Richwillt everything in tractor supply is made in China. You're not going to get an American made pellet stove for $1k. Need to spend at least 5k if you want to support US

@@diaryofageekthanks for the video. I recently got this stove and ran some softwood pellets through it and it did good. Recently switched to some hardwood and noticed it was running super hot! Like the exhaust temp was 400 and the sides of the stove were over 500. Does yours run this hot?

@@Richwillt did you manually stop the stove then start it in E1? You can’t change the eco setting while the stove is already running

@diaryofageek No I didn't, I was just wondering that this morning.. Thanks for yr help I'm going to do that mow

@ no prob. Yea eco is the ONLY setting you can’t change while it’s already burning. I don’t know why. 😆

@@diaryofageek thanks so much for replying and yr video is informative and helpful.

@@diaryofageek 🐕🐩

I have bought from these guys, good customer support: pellet-stove-parts-4less.com/pages/cleveland-iron-works-pellet-stove-replacement-parts

@@geraldwhite2912 there are a few ways to go about it. But in the end I put a small solid state relay in the stove on the room blower leads and ran some thermostat wire to my furnace fan inputs. You can also use home automation to detect when the stove is running and then trigger your smart thermostat fan.

@@andrewdaley7851 door seals tight but not over tight? Using a piece of paper? Clean behind he panels? Check out my basics video if you haven’t. Are you are actually frying the blowers? What’s the motor coil look like?

@@joep9565 yes keeping it under 350 should be the goal. Lots of things effect it though, pellets, outside air intake, fan settings. I quickly found that just because it’s computerized doesn’t mean that skill isn’t needed to get it running well. The flame is most important this video really helped me tune the blower settings for my pellets, once I knew what the flame was supposed to look like. This is a video for a different stove but flame should look the same. I run mine on p3-p4 even in the dead of winter. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXaunoeqpat_hK8feature=shared

Great, I’ll check it out. Thanks so much!

@@weinfb10 yes

yea you should still be able to use this motor, it will still run quiet, ramp up and down slowly, you just don't use the other speed wires.

@@firecaptain103 the touchscreen is just a usb connection I believe I touched on in the video. It would only work with a pc or pi setup.

@@diaryofageek Yeah, I was just wondering if you ever wired it up and demonstrated it.

Hi! I tried to document everything here: diary-of-a-geek.blogspot.com/2022/05/ego-z6-12-volt-accessory-power-outlet.html

Thank you! I just saw that in the comments on your other vid, I’ll check out the blog now :)

Should be in the description of the video. 😊

(into the DSI connection?)

Unfortunately no, the myxfitness LCD uses LVDS or FPD-Link. I hope the new Pi's start using FPD link. Its kinda-sorta the same, but the LVDS/FPD uses 4 or more data links, where the DSI is only 2 I think? (sorry for the late response)

Serious too!

@@teamgoodstock5886 What do you want it to do? I mean, do you want an hdmi port on the back, a built in fire tv or something, raspberry pi? how much you wanna pay? (I'm mentally thinking of the Austin powers scene where he says ONE Million Dollars!) 😆 Drop me an email, I think it's in my profile somewhere.
