ComfortBilt Pellet Stove Vacuum Switch. The vacuum switch is part of the stoves safety system. It is designed to detect a negative pressure inside of the burn box. If a door is left open or a gasket is not sealing properly the vacuum switch will not detect negative pressure inside the unit. This will cause the stoves to stop feeding pellets.

6.) Install the new switch and attach it to the stove using the screws previously removed.
7.) Reconnect the vacuum hose to the switch.

Troubleshooting:
Often when the unit stops feeding pellets customers assume there is an issue with their auger. In reality, this issue is often the result of a vacuum pressure problem. If the vacuum switch is operating correctly, there will be a “V” symbol visible on the bottom of the main screen on the control panel when the exhaust fan is running. If the “V” is not present, follow the troubleshooting steps found on page 4 of ComfortBilts: Guide to Switches!
