GLASS “SOOT’S” UP AT A VERY FAST RATE 

 

FLAME IS LAZY, DARK, AND HAS BLACK TIPS 

 

AFTER STOVE HAS BEEN ON FOR A WHILE, THE BURNPOT OVERFILLS 

Possible Causes: 

Possible Remedies: 

 

1.  Stove or vent pipe is dirty, which restricts airflow through the 

burnpot. 

 

 

Follow all cleaning procedure in the maintenance section of the 

owner’s manual. 

 

 

2.  Vent pipe installed improperly. 

 

 

Check to make sure the vent pipe has been installed according to 

the criteria in the owner’s manual. 

 

 

3.  Air damper is set too far in (closed) for a higher setting. 

 

 

Pull the damper knob farther out away from the side of the stove and 

try to burn the unit again. 

 

 

4.  Burnpot holes are blocked. 

 

 

Remove the burnpot and thoroughly clean it. 

 

 

5.  Air damper is broken. 

 

 

Visually inspect the damper assembly.  Make sure the damper plate 

is attached to the damper rod.  When the damper rod is moved the 

plate should move with it. 

 

 

6.  Blockage in air intake pipe. 

 

 

Visually inspect the air intake pipe that leads into the burnpot for 

foreign material. 

 

 

7.  Circuit board malfunction. 

 

 

Time the fuel feed light at each setting (after the stove has 

completed the startup cycle).  Make sure the times match the auger 

timing chart.  If the auger motor runs constantly, the board is bad. 

 

 

8.  Combustion blower is not spinning fast enough. 

 

 

Test the RPM on the blower after the blades have been cleaned.  

The RPM should be approximately 3000 RPM. 

 

 

9.  Bad Pellets 

      (Applies to GLASS “SOOT’S” UP AT A VERY FAST RATE Only) 

 

 

The brand of pellets or the batch of pellets that are being used may 

be of poor quality.  If possible, try a different brand of pellets.  You 

might also want to try a brand that is made from a different type of 

wood (softwood vs. hardwood).  Different woods have different 

characteristics when being burned. 

 

 

10.  The trim setting on the low feed rate is to low 

      (Applies to GLASS “SOOT’S” UP AT A VERY FAST RATE Only) 

 

 

 

Use the “Reset Trim” button to increase the low feed rate setting.  If 

the 1 & 4 are on, the stove is currently on the lowest setting.  If only 

the 1 light is on, the stove is in the default (medium) setting.  If the 1 

& 5 lights are on, the stove is in the high trim setting for the low feed 

rate.  If the stove is being burned on one of the two lower settings, 

advance to the next trim setting and try burning the stove.
