Harman P43 shut down

[glange1969]

My P43 is new , just started it up this past weekend.
It is set on room temp. mode. The weather here is still mild , but I was anxious
to start her up.
My question is, after reaching desired temp., is it normal for the stove to shut
completely down and the fire and fan go off , and then to start back up when
the room sensor calls for heat ? Or should the stove be always lit ?
Mine is shutting down after reaching desired temp , then re-igniteing when
the room temp drops......just wondering if mine is running correctly ?

Yup, that's what room temp auto does and that's the way many of us Harman owners run ours this time of year.

I agree. It's working as designed. I found over the years that running with the igniter in Auto burns it out more quickly so I keep mine in Manual mode which will keep the fire going.

Thanks , glad to here it's operating properly !
Now I will be tinkering with temp and feed rate to get it just right ?
Will also be trying different pellets to see which work best.
have tried Greenway and they worked fairly well , going to try pellet pro next.
any other suggestions for pellets ?
Also , always great help on this site !!

READ the info I suggested. Set your feed rate at 4 and forget it. Try all the pellets you want...a Harman will burn anything.
