Troubleshooting Notes

Helpful Tips:

The majority of all pellet stoves problems are either directly or indirectly related to general maintenance and cleaning issues. Regularly cleaning your stove will allow it to function properly and will extend the life of most of the stove’s components. Airflow plays a huge role in the overall functionality of your stove. As the airflow becomes restricted, the stove loses efficiency. Oftentimes build-up around the exhaust fan can cause a number of issues that mimic a failing motor.
