Guys when i understand how somthing works and what it actually does then i get a lot better results.
Can anyone explain to me how the lower ash pan damper works as opposed to the slider draft damper above the feed door, and then finally the damper in the stove pipe above my wood furnace? (englander 28-3500). I know that they add air when opened etc, but how do the different locations affect the burn differently etc. For example: differences of burning with top slider full open and bottom shut versus top slider half open and bottom damper half open. I just want to understand how to better work them for more effective burns. I guess ill be suprised to see responses to this, i havnt really found any good explaination on it yet. maybe its a learn from experiance only type of thing. Let me know what you guys think.
