TROUBLESHOOTING
Trouble-free operation starts with dry, clean fuel, correct draft, and sufficient combustion air. Most
problems with furnace operation can be resolved without making any repairs or replacing parts. Before
making any repairs or replacing components, make sure that:
The fuel is dry (less than 15% moisture)
The fuel is clean (small amount of dirt, foreign material, or fines)
If corn is used, make sure it is the correct variety with a low amount of oil or wax, and is not
treated (seed corn).
There is proper draft (not too much, or too little).
The combustion air is sufficient with a fresh air supply of 60 CFM and the combustion air gate is
open far enough.
Problem
Possible Cause
Possible Corrective Action
Fire will not start
Some fuels may require the use
of another fuel source to provide
enough heat to start combustion.
Initial lighting may require the use of
kindling wood. Additionally, a gel-based
lighting fluid may be used.
Fire will not start
Ash and clinkers in burn pot.
Clean out burn pot before trying to start
furnace.
Fire goes out
Chimney draft too high.
Adjust the barometric draft control as
described on page 15.
Tall or large chimneys may require a
second barometric regulator.
Reduction of the outlet to 28 square
inches may be required.
Fire goes out
Clinker build-up.
Loosen clinkers with clinker tool.
Blending fuel with another type of fuel
may reduce clinkers.
Fire goes out
Fuel moisture too high.
Replace with dry fuel.
Increase combustion air flow gate
opening.
Blend with high BTU rated dry fuel.
Fires goes out
Not enough idle cycle time.
The auger driving too often or too long will
push burning fuel out the top of the burn
pot extinguishing the fire. Adjust the cycle
time to allow for a longer idle.
