Good day all,
This year my Mt Vernon AE Pellet stove seems to be having issues. At the beginning of the year Bad TC Firepot error codes were received and ultimately I replaced the sensor and it appeared to work just fine for the next month. Now all of a sudden I am getting Min Firepot Temp error codes. Now the stove has been cleaned inside and out and is almost as clean as the day we bought her. This morning I took off all the side panels and vacuumed inside and also used a leaf blower to clean out the exhaust to make sure that there were no unseen blockages. I had done this at the end of last year and not much soot came out. In watching the stove cycle it almost appears that the stove is not feeding itself enough pellets and then the fire dies down and then the error code appears. I have the flame height adjust at +5 and it still happens. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be occurring? This stove is the houses primary source of heat and money is tight and would like to avoid a service call as much as possible.
Thanks in advance!
