Hi Kris,
A solution to try would be to add a motor run capacitor across the line at the boiler. 10uF-20uf range may improve the crossover distortion enough to allow the boiler ignitor to operate properly. Start with 10uF.

The electric ignition of LP for the wood boiler will not fire from inverter power. As soon as we fire up the generator, the boiler ignites. Has anyone seen this before? Is there a solution? The boiler is a Central Boiler E-Classic 2400. Thanks in advance! ---------- Shine On!
