AGP Stove
Start-Up Sequence (Igniter)
The stove enters a start-up sequence whenever there is a call for heat and the unit isn’t in Run mode. This
ensures proper operation through all possible settings and operational states (hot or cold, pellets burning or not
burning, etc.), and overrides all user settings (except the OFF position). During this period the START light will
flash. The stove will not enter start-up if you are loading pellets into the hopper.
During the start-up sequence, the pellets will load into the fire platform, the flame will ignite, and the room air
blower will come on when the heater comes up to the selected temperature.
NOTE:
If the heater doesn’t light 2 times in a row, both the START and STOP lights will turn on. The
combustion blower will run for about an hour before shutting off. Check to make sure there are pellets in the
hopper. We recommend cleaning the burn pot and making sure all air ports are clear of debris. Reset the unit
by unplugging it and then plugging it back in.
Power Outages
Because this stove relies upon a blower to evacuate
smoke, some smoke may enter the home during a
power outage. Leave the door closed to keep the
possibility of smoke spillage to a minimum.
NOTE:
Travis Industries recommends a minimum vertical vent of 5’ to ensure adequate draft
during a power outage.
After a power outage (or when plugging the heater in) the exhaust blower will run for
approx. 15 minutes.
This is a safety feature used to vacate smoke in case of a power outage.
Manual Mode
If a power outage occurs when the unit is hot, it will enter the start-up sequence. If the unit has cooled it
will enter a cool-down phase (exhaust blower will run up to 20 minutes to ensure smoke evacuation).
TSTAT Mode
If a power outage occurs while in TSTAT mode, the unit will continue to operate. If the thermostat calls
for heat, the unit will enter the start-up sequence and restart. If the thermostat does not call for heat it
will enter a cool-down phase (exhaust blower will run up to 20 minutes to ensure smoke evacuation).
Normal Operating Sounds
After a power outage
(or when plugging the
heater in) the exhaust
blower will run for
approx. 15 minutes.
This is a safety feature
used to vacate smoke in
case of a power outage.
Metering Auger Motor
You will hear this motor turning intermittently as
it feeds pellets. You may also hear the pellets
drop into the feed tube.
Exhaust Blower
This blower creates a low-
pitched hum. This sound
increases as the heat
output is increased.
Convection Blower
This blower produces a
slight hum and wind noise.
This sound increases as
the blower speed is
increased.
Chisel
The chisel separates the pellets
in the hopper from the feed tube.
Occasionally you may hear a
"click" as a pellet is sheared.
Creaks and Clicks
The steel may creak or click when the stove
heats up and cools down - this is normal.
