Hey everyone. I was so excited to start burning again this year now that cold weather is back and things were going great until the other night when the igniter quit on me. Fortunatly the natural gas heater was set to only a couple of degrees lower than the pellet stove so it wasn't too cold for sleeping. I use a thermostat on the pellet stove and it heats the whole house with a couple fans going to move air. My question is, how long should the igniter last? I replaced it last year in the begining of the season and now it already needs to be replaced. Im going to put the 500watt "super" igniter in this time, but just want to know when I'll be back in to replace it AGAIN. (or if there's anything I can do to extend it's life) Thanks, Neal
