28 TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
HIGH LIMIT SWITCH KEEPS TRIPPING
Possible Causes: Possible Remedies:
1. The convection blower is overheating and tripping the internal
temperature shutoff.
Clean any dust off of the windings and fan blades. If cleaning the
blower does not help, it may be bad.
2. The stove is being left on the highest setting for extended
periods of time.
The highest heat level setting is designed for use over short periods
of time. Burning the stove on the highest setting for longer than 1 –
2 hours could lead to potential overheating situations.
3. Fuel other than wood pellets is being burned in the stove. Ashley pellet stoves are designed and tested to use wood pellets.
Check for signs of fuel other than wood pellets. No other types of
fuel have been approved for Ashley pellet stoves. If there are signs
of other types of fuel being used, stop using them immediately.
4. Power surge or brown out situation. A power surge, spike, or voltage drop could cause the high limit
switch to trip. Check to see if a surge protector is being used on the
stove. If not, recommend one to the consumer.
5. High limit switch is malfunctioning. If the other items check out ok, replace the high limit switch.

SMOKE SMELL OR SOOT BUILD-UP
Because it is a wood-burning device, your Ashley may emit a faint wood-burning odor. If this increases beyond normal, or if you notice an
unusual soot build-up on walls or furniture, check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All joints should be properly sealed. Also clean
your stove, following instructions in “MAINTENANCE”. If problem persists, contact your dealer.
