Bonjour à tous
I'm going to look stupid but this is not the first time that I notice that my pellet boiler "goes out" when I enter its room: Does opening the door generate a room depression or a air that could cause the fireplace to go out? This often happens when the boiler is operating at 25 or 30% of its power ... Is the air intake undersized? What can it come from?
Thank you for your opinions.
Philippe.

It's psychosomatic ... You would expect more and better from your boiler, it would provide a little more and a little better ... that said, it is May 18, it is more than time that it goes out for a few months ...

Re: Pellet boiler that goes out ...
It is unlikely that this is a matter of air intake: opening the door brings air and not the other way around; however, the "pressure switches" make sure that there is enough air (if your model is equipped with it); So it is a depression that is detected ... In general, the variations are "smoothed" over one minute (for example) to avoid untimely shutdowns in the event of a storm causing the pressures to "oscillate" ...
On the other hand, yes, it is normal for a pellet boiler to light up and stop all the time when it is warm outside: it maintains its temperature generally between 60 ° and 75 °. Below, it may condense and therefore rust. Above, its output drops, then at a little over 100 °, it would start to boil ... When demand is low, it has no choice but to stop to restart as soon as the 60 ° is reached. To go out as soon as it reaches 75 °. These temperatures are configurable and can therefore vary from one model to another, or according to the settings. But the principle remains! They do all that!

PS: it may be relevant to put it in "summer" mode (hot water preparation) to prevent the automatisms from starting it for 3 times nothing in the early morning, just because the temperature has passed 0,5 ° under the programmed mini, while 3 hours later, the sun "overheats" the house!

Re: Pellet boiler that goes out ...
When you open the door or when you turn on the lights does it go out?
Neon tubes can strongly disturb engines on ignition: I have the specific case in my cellar, the small air extraction fan turns off 1 to 2 seconds at ignition ...

Not stupid this reflection Christophe ... Indeed I open the door and ... Turn on the neon lights ... How can that affect the fan?

Re: Pellet boiler that goes out ...
Well I think we have the solution to your problem ...
Neon lights strongly disturb the electrical network at start-up because of their bad Cos phi and other electrical subtleties that act on rotating fields.
I saw rows of neon lights (several dozen) stalling an industrial generator ... of 40 kva ...
So solution for you: improve this.
Start by no longer using neon lights to see if it comes from that (90% chance that yes)
Then reduce the power of the neon lights (1/2 ??) until the problem no longer arises.
If even the last neon continues to blow up the boiler then try an electronic ballast or completely change the lighting system ... led strips for example?
Did your electrician or installer suggest this? A priori no where your question here ...
ps: if that solved your concerns, think about making a tip ... possibly ... https://fr.tipeee.com/econologie-com

Re: Pellet boiler that goes out ...
Now that I think about it, it was since the change of one of the neon lights that the problem happened ... I will change that into LED tubes (Isn't there a problem with these?) And keep you posted in the fall when the boiler starts up again.

Re: Pellet boiler that goes out ...
Bonjour à tous
So for info it's a piece of glass wool (or something that looks like it ;-) which surrounds the boiler which hung near the air inlet which moved when I entered the room and which then closed the air intake ... The flame should then go out ... No more problems since I reattached the insulation correctly ... Well, this allowed me to change the neon lights for LED tubes ;-)
Thank you all ...

There may be problems if you take the cheapest.
