Grand Teton Teewinot Pellet Stove Basics for New users (Similar to PelPro) + Settings How-To

  • I go over some basic info for new users to these stoves. I try to explain what each screen setting is for, as well as discuss some basic startup info and tips. This stove is based from the same design as some PelPro, Cleveland Iron Works, Hearth & Home, Pleasant Hearth, England's Stove Works Summers Heat, and a few others use the exact same stove design with some minor tweaks and different controllers.
    *** Something I forgot to mention in the video. When switching from eco2 to eco1 and back, you can’t switch mid operation. You need to shut the stove down with the on-screen power button then switch eco from 1-2 or 2-1 THEN power it back on using the on-screen power button. The eco change only activates when you power the unit on, so it must first be in the eco mode you want to run.

    From personal experience I purchased the stove October 19th of 2023. I started it about 3 weeks ago and it seemed to be doing really good. I noticed that i was getting electric shock everytime I wanted to clean it even when I had it unplugged. Now, this is the bad news about this Grand Teton stove: Sunday morning about 3:00 am we woke up because the cold temperatures creeped in the bed with us, I checked the Stove App on my phone and nothing seemed wrong and then we noticed a really strong smell in the house. We got up and the stove was not working the control screen was completely off and will not turn back on.. the Stove was totally dead.
    I investigated the problem and it turned out the fuse in power switch was getting blown everytime I put a new one in...
    Ok, here comes the fun part: I had to wait until today Monday the 18th of December because their customer service dont work or answer their phones on Sunday. After about one hour or so waiting for someone to answer the phone a lady come on and from the get go after I explaind to her what happened she answers by saying so what do you want me to do? I told her I needed the stove to run as soon as possible because my house is freezing and more cold temperature is on the way and that I am almost 60 years old diabetics and just had an open heart surgery so please what ever it takes to get my stove going will be very much appreciated. She put me on hold and came back saying that she will send me a power cord, a mother board and combustion chamber and that I had to find someone to take the old ones out and to install the new ones in.. I asked her for a confirmation email or anything to refrence this call or a tracknig number, she declined to provide any information what so ever and she was threatening me of canceling the order and to take it with the Tractors Supply store which she has nothing to do with..
    Anyway the Customer support is really really bad and really made me regrets buying this pellet stove..
    I will never recommend this stove to any one because of their customer service.. things break down but customer service can make a bad experience less painful but not with this Company
    Stay a way from this stove...

    Nice video, especially covering the "Settings". Quick question, just started mine for first time, following instructions to burn off the oils and cure the paint (smelled bad w/smoke). I noticed the paint flaking off on the metal plate in the middle above the burn pot where the pellets drop from. Hopefully the stove performs good, not sure of quality with the paint flaking off this plate, apparently the metal is not prepped correctly for the retention of the supposedly heat resistant paint? I would post a picture but don't appear to have the ability.

    • @diaryofageek

    Thank you forbthe video, the owners manual doesnt help much with understanding the control panel. My issue is i have this pellet stove in the video, my house is about 1000 sq ft. I set my heat dial to 60 and my stove temp in the center of the display reads 80 (room temp). Its set on eco 2 and P4.. is there something wrong here?

    My pellets don’t ignite the igniter has worked all last winter and up to now it’s been great then the igniter is not getting hot. I have to start the fire manually ! I don’t know how to keep in manual, when it turns off I can’t restart it.

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  5 месяцев назад

      In the settings set it to eco2 that won’t shut off it will just go to its lowest feed rate, then ramp back up as the room starts to cool. You have to shut down the stove to change that setting then relight while in eco2.

    Hi, does anyone know how to reset this machine to factory settings? I have listened to NO make any changes to system settings, but I did some, and I want to get back to factory settings. After I made those changes, the machine started working differently.
    TIA.

    Are these a reliable stove? I am in the market for a pellet stove just wondering the pros and cons from someone that owns one. I like the control panel on this model.

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  8 месяцев назад

      So the control panel and the smart features are cool, but keep in mind. This is a relatively low, end pellet stove. It needs some babying to keep it running well a stove with a mechanical, stir feature, and an ash pan can go much longer without cleaning or messing with it. Also I like modifying things to make them better, and I’m a big geek. But if you don’t want to mess with it much I might spend the cash for a stove with the mechanical pot stirring mechanism. That said there isn’t anything on this stove that I can’t fix myself. So I’m pretty comfortable I can keep it going for a long time.

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  7 месяцев назад +1

      Look on the status screen for “air gap” it should be 1 once the exhaust fan kicks on. 0 if you open the front door while the fan is on. That one can be many causes. Bad door seal, plugged up exhaust or behind the 3 panels inside the fire chamber, outside exhaust plugged, air intake plugged, fan or vac switch bad.

    Hi. We're thinking to buy the pellet stove like your video. I wonder if this is a good stove and good heat. We currently have no heat in the house and we're living in the cold areas. Thanks

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  8 месяцев назад +1

      I like the stove. But if you never had wood or pellet stoves it takes some learning or you will have a hard time. But I heat my whole home with only this stove. 2,800 square foot home.

      @vuleadventsite 8 месяцев назад +1

      @diaryofageek thanks for reply. I have a fireplace in the house. Still using it it doesn't heat good. As seen on your video the control seem to be little confuse. I might think to go with the simple one.

    I just installed the same model. your breakdown was really helpful. The manual doesn't give you this information. Thanks for taking the time to break this down for other pellet stove owners! My thermostat setting doesn't activate the stove when it reaches the set temperature, any recommendations?

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  6 месяцев назад

      you need to set it to ECO1 that is the setting that turns on/off the stove, ECO2 only ramps it down to a low flame, then back up when you go below your setpoint. When changing from ECO1 to ECO2 you have to stop the stove, then start it back up for the setting to take effect.

    Can a dirty stove cause the E5 code?

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  7 месяцев назад

      Yes. It will restrict airflow and can cause this error. Would have to be pretty dirty though.

    Can I run the stove without being in eco1 or eco 2 ?

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  8 месяцев назад

      No. But “eco” really doesn’t mean power savings. It really just means eco1-Full Auto and eco2-auto flame/heat output.
      I guess if you just wanted to run it full bore you can do eco2 and set it to 99 degrees. 😬

      Thank you!! Awesome video. Instructions frustrate me. I usually tear things apart and figure out how things work. Just bought the Teewinot. Replaced an old Dansons/Pel Pro from 2008 that I bought used from a friend at work 4 years ago to heat my garage. It died right after I bought my pellets for this winter. I think it must have been a 1500sqf heater. This puppy cranks the heat!! My wife loves it. When I bought the first one, she said why do we need one of those? When it broke and got cold out she said we need to get another one ASAP!! I hope this turns out to be a good reliable stove.

    • @diaryofageek
      @diaryofageek  6 месяцев назад +1

      @@Sky_shadow839 it depends on the P setting. P1 drops every few seconds and drops for 5 seconds at a time. P4 drops for a lesser time with a longer gap between drops. P1 is high heat output P4 is lowest.
