Hi everyone. New here and new to pellet stoves . Learning alot from this site and from getting to know my stove. We have a 1993 Austoflamm Integra . Last night smoke came out of stove after about 15 min. of operation.Tall , lazy flame.We shut it down.
Today , we cleaned it some more and finally freed up the cleaning rods . Started it up again today, Huge difference in flame,lot of heat output , no smoke,ran for about 30 minutes and exhaust fan shut off after the unit cooled down.Feeling better, but still very nervous about the smoke coming out . Should we be having a huge flame during start up mode ? Thank you so much for any info !
