How is it vented

@tassiepelletheaterowners4472 9 күн бұрын

With a flue pipe much like a wood heater but slightly smaller in size.

@NipitInthebud-q8s 9 күн бұрын

So that small pipe is the exhaust I presume? Are these pellet heaters able to be set up anywhere in a house or just in areas like basements, garages, etc? Considering one for a family room

@tassiepelletheaterowners4472 9 күн бұрын

Yup, that's the exhaust. Pellet heaters can be installed like a normal wood heater or they can also be installed through the wall behind them, called direct venting. Install a pellet heater anywhere a wood heater could be installed, so, yes, lounge room or family room is perfectly fine.

Nice! I get sic dep alarma 7 fail just before pellets should drop. Cleaned pressure switch and there was dust in thermostat holder and where it's clamped into main box ( copper wire) seems to be a tad of play on it when cold. Normally starts 4th or 5th attempt. Any ideas?

@@casualgamers6020 I assume this is happening when starting the pellet heater and there is no fire yet? If so then yes clean the vacuum tube like you did. There can be ash inside the vacuum switch. That can be cleaned by opening up, just be careful and put it back together the way opened. Next, what's the door gasket like? If it's worn too much that can cause this alarm. Finally, how long ago since you cleaned inside the pellets heater and cleaned the flue? Meaning a deep clean. I'd make sure all ash inside ports and flue cleaned out.

Yes, definitely. They are built so they will shut down if there's any problem but there's no issue running a pellet heater while not at home. I personally wouldn't run it for a long time, like if I was going away for the day and there's no need to do this. Pellet heaters will reheat a space quickly, much faster than a wood heater, so if I go away for the day I switch it off and then switch it back on an hour or so before I come home. This saves pellets and money but I still come home to a warm house.

Any advice on putting a pellet stove in a 1890 duplex basement? Or should it go on first floor ?

@tassiepelletheaterowners4472 Ай бұрын

@@RalphDesain I personally wouldn't. Will it work? Yes but a few problems. First, the heat will be trapped in the basement. Yes, you can use vents and it will naturally rise up out of the doorway to the house but pellet heaters are space heaters, so most of the warmth will be in the basement. Second, is the basement insulated? If the walls aren't insulated then the cold walls will suck up a lot of heat. If the walls are insulated, then you won't have this problem but will still have the same problem that most of the heat will be trapped in the basement. Having said that there are plenty of people who install pellet heaters in their basement to heat the house above. However, I just don't think it is a good idea.

Button is pressed at about 0:02 seconds into the video. Pellets automatically feeding into the burn pot and then they catch fire. At the very start the wattage drawn is around 2 watts then a few seconds later it jumps to about 300 watts. Ignitor is starting to warm up and pellets are being slowly fed into burn pot. Fire is starting around the five minute mark but it isn't fully established and burning until the 7:33 mark. That's why the watts being drawn drops from around 300 watts down to 40 - 70 watts because the ignitor switches off.

Pellet prices depend a lot on where you live. In the USA people pay anywhere from $5 USD to $8 USD a bag. In Australia we pay anywhere from $8.50 to $13.45 AUD a bag. Most people will go through about 60 to 100 bags a year in Tasmania, Australia where I live a year. In the USA obviously cold areas people are burning up to 6 ton a year. They run their heaters non-stop. Completely agree on the maintenance. With a wood heater you can let them run non-stop for months. At the very least I'd be stopping a pellet heater burning non-stop once a week to clean out the ash. Plenty of people on the USA do this. Run their heater 24/7 and shut it down for an hour or so a week to clean it out. However, with a wood heater you are spending that time splitting, stacking, moving and drying firewood. Everyone is different and I used to enjoy cutting trees down, chainsawing it into rounds etc but not anymore. It became a chore and I hate it :-) However, I totally understand some people love doing that and it's great we can pick a heater that we like and did our lifestyles. Thanks for the comment. Much appreciated.

Yes moving is a pain. The other option is to simply put the leaf blower in at the T pipe. This way you don't have to move the pellet heater. Set it to blow and it'll suck ash out of the pellet heater and blow it out the flue. If burning 4 tons then yes you obviously must be doing a few good deep cleans. And yes I see many people in the US switching to pellets due to cost of LPG. The heater is a Zeigler and Brown which is the same as the Comfortbilt in the USA. They are essentially the same but are no longer sold here in Australia. I think this one was about 8 years old and still worked fine. Brand doesn't really matter as long as you clean the heaters properly. Yours should be fine and I see a lot of people int he US are happy with comforbilt.

I have noticed that the latest batch of Eco Pellets Tas pellets up here in Victoria have been burning leaving this same black ash behind, I have discovered that they appear to have changed their raw material ingredients after comparing with a bag from 2021, a very clear colour difference and the burn on the 2021 pellets was super clean!. I got around the problem by increasing the air rate through the burn pot, I am not sure what they have changed in the ingredients but it's not good, it's worth calling them and asking I recon because the issue has been happening on various clients heaters I serviced over winter. High soot production usually indicates that a crappy type of wood has been included in the mix like pine or the moisture content of the pellets is to high, also, this is the reason that I hate these open face paddle type fan wheels, they are inefficient, their only pro is that they don't get a build up of soot on them, closed face barrel fans do however usually once it builds up to a certain point it fly's off. I am currently messing around with fan's on my test heaters, closed face fan's are proving to improve the burn and reducing soot/ash content.

Biggest issue I see right now is retailers leave the pellet heater market, like Bunnings and basically BBQs Galore plus all the other retailers who originally sold then dropped heaters over the years because they were no longer being imported etc. People need retailers who will be around long term, can support them and help them troubleshoot etc. That plus Pellet prices are far too high on the mainland and while EcoPellets quality does vary without them I wonder what price nsfp Pellets would be selling at.

Hi, by blower if you mean room exhaust fan that blows got air into the room, then that shouldn't be possible. The smoke exhaust is obviously completely separate from the room fan. I'm guessing maybe something, first out whatever, has gotten into the room fan and that's why you are getting smoke. The only other way there could be smoke is of there was a hole or something. I wonder if the door gasket needs to be replaced. However, a bad door gasket would trigger a a vacuum day switch and the heater would shut down. Is the smoke only visible during startup? Do you have an outside air kit? Sometimes during startup there is a very tiny bit of smoke that comes out of the pellet heater but it's minimal and definitely wouldn't be heaps of smoke billowing out.

Hi, yes I believe it's AS/NZS 4012. However, I think it is being updated and pellet heaters are exempt. They used to be exempt in an old version of the standard then it was updated and no longer exempt. This is being reviewed and the updated version should exempt then again because they burn so clean.

@@tassiepelletheaterowners4472 Hi, thanks for your feed back. From my research , yes it seems they are exempt, except for the AS/NZS 2918, which is some kind of installation standard. Do you know anything about this 2918? You mentioned a new law will except them completely? …do you know when this will be implemented?

@@MaxStArlyn Hey, looks like that standard you referred to is for installation requirements. The standard I was referring to above (god it's confusing) was regarding emissions etc. That standard is currently being reviewed and updated because they left out pellet heaters being exempt from emission standards (it may already be updated, I haven't checked in a while). I can't comment on installation requirements, just that pellet heaters don't need to meet emission standards like wood heaters because pellet heaters already burn much cleaner. Just curious. What exemption or what are you doing that has you looking at exemptions etc? There should be no problem getting a pellet heater installed. I'm just wondering what are you looking at doing etc?

Just out of curiosity what would cause his pellet stove to run good for about 12 hours and then all the sudden flood out

Not exactly sure what you mean by flood out. If it stops feeding pellets into the burn pot and as a result the fire dies out, then sounds like a temp sensor is faulty. It can't detect a fire so switches off. However, there could be many reasons. What's happening exactly and what do you mean flood out?

Would be great if the physical wire sensor could be upgraded with a bluetooth connection so you can put the sensor at the other end of a room. I wonder if anyone makes a converter ?

I've looked but can't see anything. I would love to do the same thing. Some kind of wireless temperature setup.
