INTERIOR CHAMBERS
• Burn Pot - Periodically remove and clean the burn
pot and the area inside the burn pot housing. In
particular, it is advisable to clean out the holes in
the burn pot to remove any build up that may
prevent air from moving through the burn pot
freely.
• Heat Exchanger - There is a clean out plate on
both sides of the heat exchanger that need to be
removed to clean fly ash out of the heat exchanger.
The cleanouts are located inside the cabinet doors,
on the lower front corners of the heat exchanger.
To access these clean outs, you must remove both
side panels. The clean outs are secured to the
firebox with (2) 5/16" screws. Remove the clean
outs and vacuum out any accumulated ash. This
should be done at least once per month or more
frequently if large amounts of ash are noticed
while cleaning or if the stove does not seem to be
burning properly.
If a vacuum is used to clean your stove, we suggest
using the AV15E AshVac vacuum. The AV15E AshVac
is designed for ash removal. Some regular vacuum
cleaner (i.e. shop vacs) may leak ash into the room.
DO NOT VACUUM HOT ASH.
