I have a Quadrafire Model 1000 pellet stove and have had no issues with it until this year. The convection blower started cycling after the stove had run and shut down, it comes on for a second or 2 and then shuts off again. After it does this 5 or so times the combustion fans both turn on and they run for several minutes. I started by replacing the snap discs and it did not fix the problem. I then noticed the bearings on the convection blower and small combustion blower were going out and replaced both of these fans, still no luck. I took the entire stove apart and the heat exchanger needed cleaned it was pretty plugged so I cleaned it but still no luck. I started thinking it wasn't moving enough air across the heat exchangers to cool off the stove enough after running so I replaced the large combustion blower and it didn't change a thing.
Fairly frustrated at this point and talking to my local Quadrafire distributer they are at a loss also. It seems to me like the stove is not cooling off enough after running that it is heating the snap discs after sitting for a bit and it starts the fans. Any help would be very much appreciated, really don't want to keep throwing parts at it.
