the stove will show an error. This requires a distinction between ignition or no
ignition.
There is actually no ignition and no fire.
Possible causes:
•
The glow plug is defective (see component 10.1.8)
•
Not enough oxygen. This can have several causes:
o
The stove is clogged and needs maintenance. (6.2 annual
maintenance)
o
The flue fan (10.1.9) does not operate with sufficient strength.
o
There is too much underpressure in the house. Examples of causes
include; too little ventilation, mechanical central extraction, cooker
hood in the kitchen. You can check this by opening a window near
the stove. If the stove burns well, you have too much underpressure
in the house.
There is fire and ignition, but the stove does not measure enough flue gas
temperature. Possible causes:
•
Smoke temperature sensor (10.1.12) defective.
•
The ignition phase takes too long. One solution is to increase the speed of
the flue fan and pellet supply.
Pellet stove gets too hot
If the pellet stove gets too hot, it shuts down and then shows ERROR 6 on the
display. The maximum thermostat (see 10.1.7) then comes on. This can have
several reasons:
•
The combustion is too hot. This may be caused by pellets with too much
energy. The pellet supply should be adjusted downwards.
•
The flue fan cannot discharge enough flue gases and thus heat. Check
that the burn pot is clean. The pellet stove may also need maintenance.
•
The pellet stove is covered. When covered, the pellet stove cannot lose its
heat.
