Pellet Stove Repair
Pellet stoves are half fireplace, half machine — auger feeds, igniters, two blowers, vacuum switches, and a control board running the show. When one link fails the stove gets cranky in very specific ways, and those symptoms point straight at the culprit.
Symptom to part, fast
No pellets dropping: auger jam or motor. Pellets but no fire: igniter. Fire that dies mid-burn: vacuum switch or exhaust blower losing draft. Smoke smell in the room: door gasket or a leaking vent joint. We stock the common failure parts for major brands, so most repairs finish in one visit.
The maintenance connection
Most “repairs” we see are really ash: a burn pot crusted past airflow, an exhaust passage choked with fly ash, a convection fan packed with dust. Part of every repair is clearing the system and showing you the cleaning rhythm that prevents the next call — honest, even when it costs us a future visit.

Common Questions
My stove starts, runs ten minutes, and shuts down. Why?
That’s the classic vacuum-switch story: the stove senses weak draft — from a dirty exhaust path or a tired blower — and shuts down for safety. The fix is usually cleaning plus one part.
Are pellet stove parts available for older models?
Igniters, blowers, and augers are largely standardized — we source for most brands sold in Texas over the last 20 years. Control boards for orphaned brands are the only common headache, and we’ll tell you upfront.
