For the second year I have gone straight pellets and loving it . They are cleaner and a lot less trouble than corn . I have extended the room temp probe on my PC 45 by ten feet just around the corner from my stove where it no longer blows on it and it is like a totally different stove keeps 2000 sq foot ranch style house at 72 degrees very comfortable

Which burn pot are you using?

It does not make any difference I have the dip switches set for pellets and run the corn setup I use the stir rod I have the open front for the burnpot but i dont like it

I have to clean the "ash mountain" at least twice a day. May give it a try with the corn pot. Might be less messing around with it.

I have the pellet pot, but if I am burning a mix with corn, I like (and have been using) the corn pot with the pellet end plate. May just switch tonight and put the stir rod in for a while. Thanks

I had the same problem with the pellet front I think you will like the corn set up alot better mine has ran for five days and all i have done is put pellets in the hopper I have not dumped ashes which I done every day when burning straight corn

With decent pellets you can burn close to a ton before dumping the ash bucket.

I have swapped it over and seems to be working great.

Rona - I have been noticing that when I turn the fan control to adjust the fan speed, once it's up to temp, or has been running for hours, it wants to kick into igniter sequence. Is the fan pot. warn out or esp probe? Any ideas?

I'm all pellets for the first year. Last year I was almost all pellets.
