Ditto. You want the exhaust to be warm. Too cold and it condenses and rots out right away.
Can't say about Sting's exhaust. It's obvious hot enough.

Your're temperature is fine Mustang00. Somewhere around 220F is needed to prevent creosote when burning pellets, and manufacturers design the stoves to exhaust that much even when they're on low settings.
Aaind, not familiar at all with your stove, but if you are able to close your draft without flooding, you can probably cut stack temp. some. Some stoves are efficient at higher settings, and some aren't- my furnace is one of those that isn't. |
