Hi yall, I have a keystoker comfortair gt. Direct vent
Trying to get it burning properly. I have the stove set to factory specs and the draft is .o2 the coal keeps burning uneven. What and how do I adjust so it burns straight across. I'm terrified of a hopper fire.
Help keystoker setup

Did you just fire it up, it takes time to settle out or has it been burning a while.?
Has it been serviced? was the grate sealed good? holes cleaned, etc....

Yup, if it doesn't settle in and get to straight line then my vote is for piled up coal fines under the grates.
Get some new gaskets if you go in by removing the grates.
Some can get access by leaving the grates alone and coming in from behind through the fan air way.
