Holy Harman!!!!

Screw the gel, hand sanitizer is the same thing and a lot cheaper. Even better than that is a propane torch on the pellets for 30-45 seconds, close the door and you are off to combustion land.

Shut it down? I just started it last night. There better not be any ash in there yet! Probably this weekend.

The hand sanitizer does work well. Never had much luck with the torch strangely.

Will any hand sanitizer work ? thats a cool idea i just installed an old pellet stove in my hunting cabin with out auto ignition

It should. Mine is germ-x brand. 63% alcohol. 126 proof! Whoooo! Lol. (Don't drink it)

I've found the water in it breaks down the pellets a bit making them ignite even easier.

good to know in a pinch

Nice install. Enjoy the warmth !

2 ton of 'sets in your first year burning.... VERY NICE ! ! !

I've had excellent success with the bernzomatic.

I have used both and prefer the Bernzomatic....hit the pellets for 45 seconds and done.

...coming from a propane hater

Stove is beautiful..Congrats!

Yup. Took the advice of those on this forum that raved about them. Searched high and low and scored.

Thanks. Long wait, but so far very much worth it.

Haha...this is true!!

Shhhhs on the "raving about them". Dont want Lowes doing what they did up here with Greene Team where they caught on and overpriced them.

Enjoy ! !
