Bi-Weekly Maintenance (or every 10 bags of pellets)
Flyash Removal
This heater was designed to allow for easy flyash removal with the included tools. However, to ease
maintenance, several pellet stove owners have purchased vacuums specifically made to remove
flyash. Furthermore, some of these vacuums are heat-resistant to allow for flyash removal while it is still
warm. Do not use a standard vacuum on this appliance (except to clean the pellet dust out
of the hopper). Standard vacuums may spread the fine particles inside the flyash into the home and
are not heat-resistant (hot flyash may cause the internal portion of vacuums to ignite).
Clean the Hopper
Run the stove until the pellets run out. Open the hopper and remove the dust and debris near the
bottom of the hopper.
Clean the Heat Exchange Tubes
WARNING:
The front edge of the
stove becomes very hot,
do not touch the area
below the handle.
Keep the door closed so the
flyash does not enter the room.
Use the included tool to move the
heat exchanger rod up and down.
NOTE: The tool hangs on
the back of the stove.
