STOVE FEEDS PELLETS, BUT WILL NOT IGNITE
Possible Causes:
Possible Remedies:
1. Air damper open too far for ignition.
Push the air damper in closer to the side of the stove for
startup. In some situations it may be necessary to have the
damper completely closed for ignition to take place. After
there is a flame, the damper can then be adjusted for the
desired feed setting.
2. Blockage in igniter tube or inlet for igniter tube.
Find the igniter housing on the backside of the firewall. The
air intake hole is a small hole located on bottom side of the
housing. Make sure it is clear. Also, look from the front of
the stove to make sure there is not any debris around the
igniter element inside of the igniter housing.
3.
The burnpot is not pushed completely to the rear of the
firebox.
Make sure that the air intake collar on the burnpot is
touching the rear wall of the firebox.
4. Bad igniter element.
Put power directly to the igniter element. Watch the tip of
the igniter from the front of the stove. After about 2 minutes
the tip should glow. If it does not, the element is bad.
5. The control board is not sending power to the igniter.
Check the voltage going to the igniter during startup. It
should be a full current. If the voltage is lower than full
current, check the wiring. If the wiring checks out good,
the board is bad.
SMOKE SMELL COMING BACK INTO THE HOME
Possible Causes:
Possible Remedies:
1.
There is a leak in the vent pipe system.
Inspect all vent pipe connections. Make sure they are
sealed with RTV silicone that has a temperature rating on
500 degree F or higher. Also, seal joints with UL-181-AP foil
tape. Also, make sure the square to round adapter piece
on the combustion blower has been properly sealed with
the same RTV.
2. The gasket on the combustion blower has gone bad.
Inspect both gaskets on the combustion blower to make
sure they are in good shape.
CONVECTION BLOWER SHUTS OFF AND COMES BACK ON
Possible Causes:
Possible Remedies:
1. The convection blower is overheating and tripping the
internal temperature shutoff.
Clean any dust off of the windings and fan blades. If oiling
the blower does not help, the blower may be bad.
2. Circuit board malfunction.
Test the current going to the convection blower. If there is
power being sent to the blower when it is shut off, then the
control board is fine. If there is NOT power being sent to the
blower when it shuts off during operation, then you have a
bad control board.
