Enviro Mini

General Review:

The big selling point with the Mini is its small footprint.  It will still rate to heat up to 1200 sq. ft.  and in actuality will do much more.  You may need to tighten some loose parts to cut down on any rattles.  You may also see this as the Enviro Bern in some markets.
Again, prices will vary on these but they can usually be found for between $2000-$2400.
The ashpan is a good size but you need to make sure that it is firmly sealed with both hook mechanisms.  Look out for buildup underneath the pan as well.  Failure to do so may allow an air leak and cause issues especially when looking to ignite a new fire.  You’ll also want to make sure the damper is set properly to aid ignitions as well.  Figure on about 2 inches of opening.  When re-attaching the burn pot, be sure to light it up properly with the ignitors.

Key Features

  • 30000 BTU
  • Auto ignition
  • Auto clean glass

Advantages:

Very small footprint, great for small cabins or tight spaces
Easy to install with an integrated hearth pad.
Nice looking and modern design
Can go up to 36 hours on one hopper fill

Disadvantages:

With a small burn pot, the build up can get large within just a few days.  It needs frequent cleanings.
Older stove designs (pre-2008) had some issues with exhaust blowers turning off prematurely when thermostat settings were changed.
At highest settings, the unit can tend to get noisy.
Some adjustments are needed

Final Thoughts:

For a small heater it puts out a good punch. It take a little bit of adjustment up front and some regular maintenance to keep it running at full steam though.
