Hi I have a Harmen P35i pellet stove im having problems with the pellets not falling down in the hopper. I use this stove for heat so this is becoming a problem everything with the stove works as it should except for the not falling down the hopper part. Has anyone else had this problem? The stove is about 5 years old and it has done this before but this season its everyday.. Neep some help!

Yes, I’ve had the same problem with my P43. It was with AWF pellets. I switched to a different pellet and the problem disappeared.

Its was interesting in that I did not have the issue with my Accentra Insert.
 
I ceramic coated my hopper walls and no issues, lots here use car wax or a Polish and it helps unless the pellets are too long it’ll make a difference polishing, waxing or like I did, ceramic coating
