OK guys, been trying to help a friend with his stove since its identical to mine.I thought it was just dirty since he had never taken it completely apart for cleaning.So, I did.
The Prob is it appears to burn Decent, but not as hot a flame as mine after thorough cleanout and disassembly.I've removed all the Blowers, cleaned the Exhaust pipe,removed the Cast Iron Panels behind the fake Brick Panel,Reassembled everything, fired it up,ran decent for 6 to 8 hours.When he went into his store the next morn, same thing as before.Stove was out, room full of smoke,pellets overflowed the Pot and had burned a pyramid of pellets up the chute.Flame when light resembles a Candle, dark orange,lotsa black soot on the glass just overnight.
I Noticed when i put a hair dryer behind the stove and on LOW put some more air in the Fresh Air Intake, smoke came out from top of the Ash Drawer, after examining the mark the Gasket leaves on the ash drawer, there is no imprint on the top right at all.If the ash drawer is pulled open during stove running, there is absolutely NO CHANGE in Flame appearance.I told him to try a new Gasket on the ash drawer,other then that, what else would make the combustion chamber have no pressure,its gotta be sucking air somewhere else.Could it be a sensor? Thanks
