Has never run correctly according to the homeowner. The problem is that it shuts off after about 6 hrs, whether the room is to temp or not. The machine absolutely will not run on low for longer than 40 minutes.
1. I installed a clean out T and completely cleaned the entire appliance. It started up quicker and ran better.
2. Adjusted the hopper feed rate to the auger, it was almost shut, it's not about half way open. I had it all of the way open but too much pellet was dropping and knocking the fire out of the fire box.
3. All snap discs, vacuum hose, vacuum gauge are clean and operating correctly.
4. Thermocouple seems to function as it should.
5. It cannot be a thermostat issue if the room never gets to temp, right?
One note...the stove was bought new and has no more than a ton burned in it. Its a very sharp nice looking stove.
The appliance will burn for 3-4 days if you leave it on high or medium, but if goes on low....done.
I suspect it may be a pellet issue so I loaded a bag of Barefoots; customer called this morning to say the fire went out overnight. I doubt that he ever made it to room temp....
Good thing he is around the corner from me cause this stove just has me perplexed. I read another thread about the same stove having the same symptoms...but I cannot find it, any help is appreciated.
