I cleaned my stove this weekend and took out the ceramic logs....As soon as it fired up I start hearing this whistling sound....It whistle all the thru burn time and shutdown mode.......Could it be because the logs were taken out?
 
My Leyden will start to whistle when the pellets ignite and the fire starts to grow. Stops after 5 minutes or so. It does this with or without the logs.

Sounds more like an air leak. Damage the door gasket? Or hey, maybe you got some pretty women walking by the stove all the time. That's sure to cause a whistle.
 
If I push the right door in with a little force it goes away....

Proves its not the women then. Looks like the gasket.
