ASH: The ash content of the fuel and operation of your stove will directly determine the frequency of
cleaning. The use of high ash fuels may result in the stove needing to be cleaned daily. A low ash fuel
may allow longer intervals between cleaning.
CLINKERING: [clinkers are silica (sand) or other impurities in the fuel that will form a hard mass
during the burning process]. This hard mass will block the air flow through the Burn Pot
Liner and affect the performance of the stove. Any fuel, even approved types, may tend to clinker.
Check the Burn-Pot Liner daily to ensure that the holes are not blocked with clinkers.
If they become blocked, remove the liner (when the unit is cold) and clean/scrape the clinkers out.
Clean the holes with a small pointed object if required.
Refer to the section Routine Cleaning and Maintenance.
PELLET FEED RATES: Due to different fuel densities and sizes, pellet feed rates may vary. This may
require an adjustment to combustion fan's speed or to the auger feed trim setting on low. Since stove
supplier has no control over the quality of pellets that you use, we assume no liability for your choice in
wood pellets.
Take care of the pellet. Do not damp or crush it. Or, it will affect the efficiency and the dust will be
collected on the door glass. Pellet fuel is made from sawdust and scrap wood from many different
species of wood. Pellets made from hardwoods contain more ash than those made from softwoods.
Minerals from ash and sand in the pellets clinker under the extreme temperatures in the burn pot. Try
burning various brands of pellets until you find one that burns with minimum ash and clinkers. Once
you find a pellet brand that burns well, continue using this brand. High ash fuel increases the
frequency of stove cleaning. Fuel with excessive moisture content may jam the auger assembly.
Store pellets at least 36" (1m) away from the pellet stove
