What EEE
actually means.

Wood-fired Wood Stone ovens and the early radiant-flame gas ovens carry a simple temperature readout wired to a floor thermocouple. EEE or an erratic number means the thermocouple leads are reversed, loose or damaged, or the readout itself has failed.

What to do when EEE shows on the pizza oven

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Wood Stone's own guidance for EEE on its pizza ovens. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Keep cooking only by eye and by the fire; the readout does not control the burners on a wood-fired oven.

02

Check whether the display is also dim or blank, which points to power rather than the sensor.

03

Book a visit so the readout can be bench-checked with a jumper and the thermocouple and its plug tested.

Still there?

It usually turns into pizza oven thermostat and control repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

EEE does not mean the oven is too hot or that the fire must be put out. On a wood-only oven the readout is the only electrical part, so the oven itself keeps working.

Where EEE usually leads

Pizza oven thermostat and control repair.

Thermostat calibrated or replaced, temperature probe, timer, controller board or display · moderate.

Questions
about EEE.

Can I clear EEE myself?
Keep cooking only by eye and by the fire; the readout does not control the burners on a wood-fired oven. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Can I still use my Wood Stone wood-fired oven when the readout shows EEE?
Yes, with care. The readout only reports the floor temperature on a wood oven, so you lose the number but not the heat; judge the floor the way you would without a gauge until it is repaired.
What causes EEE on a Wood Stone temperature readout?
Reversed or loose thermocouple wires, a damaged thermocouple or plug, or a failed readout. A technician tells which by jumpering the readout.
Why is my Wood Stone readout somewhere beside the oven?
Wood Stone notes the readout is often moved next to the oven to suit the room design, so look there for the display and its transformer.

Back to your everyday

Still showing EEE?

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code copied as shown, the model and serial from the rating plate, and a note on whether the oven still lights, heats or moves its belt. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your oven the same day.
