First winter owning this stove. Has been running great from October up until now. Yesterday the stove was running a bit odd, the pellets weren't burning all the way through, resulting in a build-up of crumbly black pellets. The status readout keeps flipping between ALF 1 and ALF 2, with ALF 2 being the more common. I'm going to go clean the flue pipe as I suspect it may just be a build-up of soot. Feeling frustrated this happens on a below-freezing day. Do others have experience with this error status readout? Any suggestions for troubleshooting or remedies?
 
When it happens it is always the coldest day of the Year
