I had posted back in December about having issues with my Prescott. It had turned out that it needed a good cleaning and I removed both the combustion fan and the room circulating fan and it was burning like a champ.

Well, the last 2 weeks or so, it's been running on 3 and has been backing up due to poor combustion. Black on the walls and glass, dark orange flame. Yuck. So again, I took it apart and this time I cleaned it all and did the leaf blower trick. You could eat off this thing it's so clean.
That was yesterday. I cranked it back up last night and had it on 3 again. This morning I came down to the same poorly burning stove.
What gives? Is this a pellet issue? They've all been stored in my basement for months. I'm really at a loss to understand why the combustion is so poor. The air intake is wide open.
Thoughts?
