Austroflamm integra

[COOLINK13]

Hello everyone, I have the opportunity to purchase a Austroflamm integra 1 for less than 200.00. Looks to be in ok shape. There was a video of it dropping pellets and exhaust blower working only. The seller doess not more than that. So that all I know. Have done some research on parts and other valuable information. I'm aware that may need parts like air sensor or room fan harness, There is a kit for 400.00 to update it to auto ignition from off grid . I like old stuff. Should I buy or walk away?? Looking for opinions and advice.

Thank you.

For $200I’d would buy, I would not do the igniter route but that is just me as I don’t have one in my Integra.
Maybe the room fan just needs a good cleaning or the circuit board maybe an issue.
But for the price I would go for it!

200 i’d be all over it 😎. Lil bit of Anderol, a soft bristle brush and a dmm will tell all you need to know to fix it. I would not upgrade to igniter either. ( another thing to fail)

Thank you both your replies and advice. Both my igniters on my stoves are not working. I have been using the propane torch just fine. The igniter would be good for the other half to start the stove when need be. How large is the hopper on this model??

About or close to 2.5 bags. 99 lbs.

That's a good size hopper.

How often do you integra guys have to clean the stove? Are you able to use a thermostat on the integra 1 ?? I'm burning green supreme right now. I have read that these stoves can be finicky on pellet brands . I'm off to see and most likely purchase the integra tomorrow morning.
