I bought a Harman Advance Pellet Stove a few weeks ago. Last night I'm sitting in the living room watching a movie with the family, stove cranking away, when my daughter says, "The bricks in the stove are crooked and it looks stupid". I look, and sure enough they are. (Never noticed) Now, thats all I'm focused on. I'm anal that way. So this morning I shut the stove down, cleaned the burnpot and vacuumed it out a little and investigated the crooked brick plate. The reason the brick plate is crooked is that the burn pot is crooked. Its off about 1/2 inch over 8 inches. A blind man could feel it with a stick! I bought this stove because its supposed to be one of the best, qualty wise and because it was made in America. I had a few other little things that I took care of myself. One, was the distribution fan whined when it came on. I took that apart and found a guard was vibrating. I took it off and put a slight bend in it and put it back together. Its silent now. The clowns didnt hear this at the factory? Also, the left side door wouldnt come off because one of the tangs was too long by a hair. I took a file to it and now its fine. Does Harman have a QC department or do they just slap them together and send them out the door? I know these are small issues but I paid close to $3000 for this stove. Harman, get your head out of your butt.
Ok, I got the off my chest.
The question: There are 4 bolts holding the burn pot. If I loosen them is it possible to rotate the burn pot level and do I need to seal the burn pot to where it mounts against? Has anyone ever replaced a burn pot that could possibly share some insight?
