Hello all,
I just installed a 66M Refleks Stove, manage to light it properly and to keep it burning, but I doubt that it's burning correctly.
It doesn't give a lot of heath. It's not too cold outside, and it's quiet small inside (sailingboat of 8 meters, the "room" that is heated is about 3 x 2,5 x 2 meters), but after several hours of burning, the temperature only raises a few degrees, it stays quiet chilly inside.
In instruction videos etc. , I noticed that the flame should be located at the upper circle of air-holes, 10cm above the bottom of the burner pot.
With my stove this is not the case: it burns completly at the bottom. Sometimes the flames grow higher, but they never form at the upper air holes.
Any ideas of why this happens? And could this be related to the limited heathing?
I just cleaned the burner pot completely, cleaned the holes with an air compressor, so they are not blocked.
In other videos I saw that some stoves have a spring in the middle, that starts to glow orange when lighted. Could this help to bring the flames upwards?
Here some pictures. If you look closely, you'll see the flame stays at the bottom of the pot.
Thanks in advance for any advice!!
