Just got my new RT-700 last week, did the initial burn-in and a batch of chicken thighs with no problem.
Decided to do pizza last night so started the grill and set it on “full” - the temperature ran up to about 540 which seemed a bit hot so I lowered the set point to 480. But I couldn’t get the grill to hold that temp no matter what I did - opened the door, let the temp drop and it ran right back to 540 in spite of the set point. I ended up cooking my pizza at that temp and it came out fine. But something is clearly not right.
One thing I’ve noticed is that I never hear the fan on my grill fluctuate - it seems to run “full blast” all the time. My Green Mountain pellet grill would start “huffing” to maintain temp once it hit the set point. This seems like it might be a problem to me - or is this how the Rectec grills operate?
Any suggestions on what to look for or how to figure out why this thing is acting so strange? I’ve sent an email to support but don’t expect to hear much from them till after the holiday.
