Sorry, cannot post about a problem, don't really have any.

Since the ignitor replacement, the Accentra fires up smartly, over the weekend it did so at about the 3-1/2 minute mark from switching it on, best ever. All it seems to need is cleaning the glass up when I get home before firing it up (a little Invisible Glass and a paper towel for 3-4 seconds) and of course feeding it (eventually I'll learn how to refill without spilling any pellets on the floor.

After a chilly weekend, really warming up here and if I can believe the extended forecasts, maybe only 1-2 more evenings' use in March and not sure what April will bring. I started the season with 2 tons plus 37 bags, I guess I have one ton plus 20-25 bags left. So I'll finish the season with enough left that I can buy less for next season (unless we get a crazy-cold winter for 2016-2017).

So 25 months after installation, I'm settling in to pellet stove ownership and use; overall I'm pleased.

:) :) :) :)
