I have a KING PELLET STOVE made from US STOVE CO...

its 3 yrs old.....works great but the problem is.....
it starts fine and when the fan starts it makes an intermittent humming sound .....
very annoying..lol......I took the side panel off to take a look..it sounds its coming from the exhaust blower....
I was wondering if anyone experienced the same.....
I would change the part but it costs about 277 bucks....pretty steep to just start replacing things....
any suggestions....

Thanks Stan..
 
When was the last time you took it out and evicted the dust bunnies? Pellet dust, pet hair and general household dust accumulates and gets it out of balance. If lucky the motor may have an oil port.
