# Twin Eagles LOW HEAT: the pellet grill is losing temperature

The Twin Eagles controller watches the grill temperature against the target.

## What LOW HEAT actually means.

The Twin Eagles controller watches the grill temperature against the target. When it keeps falling, the Low Heat Alarm opens a warning that points first at the pellet supply, then at a firepot choked with ash.

Twin Eagles grill display · also shown as Temperature dropping.

What to do when LOW HEAT shows on the grill

### Kind of code Pellet feed and auger

Pellets stopped reaching the firepot. Sometimes the hopper simply ran low and a pellet bridge formed over the auger; more often damp pellets swelled into a hard plug inside the auger tube, or the auger motor strains and stalls against it. Emptying the hopper of soft or crumbled pellets and refilling with dry ones is a fair first step; clearing a packed auger tube, a sheared pin or a motor that hums without turning is a visit.

### Usually leads to Pellet grill auger and controller repair

Jammed augers, dead hot rods, weak combustion fans, lying probes and failed controllers on pellet grills, traced and replaced with the maker's parts.

### Shows up as Grill Error Code on a Pellet Controller or Digital Panel

A grill error code shows as letters and numbers on a pellet grill controller, a flashing light on a digital control panel, or an alert in the maker's app paired with the grill.

### Make Twin Eagles

Twin Eagles grill work starts at the control panel, where the tech tests the ignition, the lights and every knob before lifting the grates.

Twin Eagles 36-inch Wood Fired Pellet Grill with its weatherproof touchscreen: TEPG36G, and TEPG36R with the rotisserie. The Twin Eagles C Series gas grills (TEBQ) have plain knobs and show none of this.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Twin Eagles's own guidance for LOW HEAT on its grills. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Keep the hood closed, check the hopper and top it up with dry pellets.

02

Tap Exit to clear the warning and watch whether the temperature recovers.

03

If it keeps dropping, shut the grill down, let it cool completely, clear the firepot and its air holes, then restart; book a visit if LOW HEAT returns with a full hopper and a clean firepot.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [pellet grill auger and controller repair](https://bbqgrillrepair.center/services/pellet-grill-auger-and-controller-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

LOW HEAT is not a gas warning or a burner report; this grill burns wood pellets. It also does not mean the probe is wrong, since the alarm reacts to the grill temperature falling, not to the food.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about LOW HEAT.

### Can I clear LOW HEAT myself?

Keep the hood closed, check the hopper and top it up with dry pellets. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does my Twin Eagles pellet grill show LOW HEAT with a full hopper?

Pellets can bridge in the hopper or the firepot can fill with ash so air cannot reach the fire. Once the grill is cold, clear the firepot and its holes and stir the pellets before restarting.

### Can cold weather cause LOW HEAT on a Twin Eagles pellet grill?

Twin Eagles says that below 50 degrees outside the grill may struggle to hold settings under 200 degrees. A higher target on cold days avoids the alarm.

### Do damp pellets trigger LOW HEAT on a Twin Eagles?

Wet or poor pellets burn badly and the temperature falls. Twin Eagles asks for dry, additive-free cooking pellets stored in a sealed container.
