I’m hoping someone could post a picture of the inside of there pellet stove mine has an air wash system with no gasket on top of the glass is this normal? I get smoke coming out of that gap?

If your combustion fan is working there should be no smoke coming out at the Glass

I hear the fan working I believe it’s a convection/combustion fan sometimes the smokes just sits there other times it doesn’t

When was the last time the stove was cleaned from air intake
to exhaust termination? Sounds like it need a good cleaning

Thanks I do have it not sure how to clean it though

 

[johneh]

Look at cut away on page A pipe connecter clean out and heat exchanger cleanout
also clean the burn pot and check that all the holes are open. Also, read page A1

 

[Geopoly]

Cleaned it all out tried without gasket on top of glass and smoke filters out then tried with gasket on top and fire eventually just died out and smoke was seeping through the door gasket which is brand new

Read page 4 of the manual. Now that is interesting
What is the serial number of your stove?
Read pages 18 and 18a which type of stove is yours
by serial number

 

[Geopoly]

My stove is ww1 so page 18 for page 4 do refer to the pipe length?

 

[johneh]

The serial number will tell if you have a natural draft stove or a forced draft stove
before 3608 is natural
after 3608 is forced
If before 3608 you may or will always have a smoke problem

 

[Geopoly]

Hmm mine is 01953 so it’s natural draft that’s no good

Well, the stove is 34 years old makes a nice conversation peace!!
