Error code E1 is a very serious problem with a pellet stove. It means that the pellets are burning too fast to allow the system to continue to work properly. It is very likely that there will be a sudden drop in the temperature of the system. This is caused by the exhaust flow not being able to maintain proper flow. The exhaust flow is not able to keep the flue switch closed, and so the air cannot escape from the stove.
Error code 1 occurs when the pellet stove starts to heat up when the stove is turned on, but the system does not cool completely. E1 is very common because the exhaust blower is a faulty device, and there are many other common reasons for this error code.
Cleaning the chimney, the flue, and the heat exchangers is very important. Clean and check the exhaust and air intake pipes very often, and make sure that all the obstructions in the pipes are gone. Keep the exhaust pipes that allow air to escape from the stove long and wide for at least four inches.
Check that the hose that enters the stove from the outside is at least 3 inches in diameter, and that the exhaust fan is working properly. Fix or replace the blower that blows the exhaust air that is blown out of a pellet stove.

Sometimes the pellets don’t reach the combustion chamber because the auger motor is not working properly or the fuel used is not good. It is possible that the pellets that you are burning are dirty.
