Looking for some thoughts and ideas please. I have a Heatmor 200 x. I burn mostly Maple, Beech, Black Birch, and Oak. I use a moisture probe and the wood ranges between 12 - 20% moisture. What is happening - I add split wood nothing bigger than 10" diameter and 18" long. I am not letting a deep ash base. I burn it down to less than 4" before adding wood - only 5 - 7 pieces. My fan is creosoting up and the flapper does not open when the blower kicks on. IS THERE A WAY TO STOP THE CREOSOTE BUILD UP ON THE FAN. IS THERE A SPRAY OR SOMETHING THAT I CAN USE TO REDUCE THE BUILD UP? I have attached picture of wood storage. Want to add the low water temp is set to 165 and high is 185. The house is well insulated and I don't have alot of heat loss so the temp drop in boiler does not require the fan to kick on alot to get fire hot.
