I have a United States Company Pellet Stove that was purchased about two weeks ago. The model number is 6041HF. When the stove runs it makes a noise that sounds like a base booming sound in the room. It gets louder in the evening. If you run the stove on a higher setting, the noise gets louder. Help please! Thank you.
 
Welcome to the forum.

You have moving air through two sets of tubes that are joined.

Add a part that starts vibrating when the air goes by it and you have reed inside the tube and that is exactly the same as a pipe in a pipe organ.

You have to locate the item that is vibrating and if possible stop it.
 
Pipe organ reference got my attention - I used to build and service them. The analogy makes perfect sense.
