Just had stove serviced. Said everything was fine. Two day later go outside and see lots of smoke. go to stove and see water temp 156. Open door and tons of smoke come out. After shutting down and going to work come home and investigate. Seems like had burn back. Lots of chared pellets. hit auger jog to clean out augers. Top auger not working. Lower was working so ran and found out the safety kicked in and let water on pellets to stop burn back. Top auger was jamb with with wet pellets. Pulled auger out and cleaned. hooked back up and augers working fine. But now the gas will not light. Anybody else had this trouble.
