MAINTENANCE ROUTINE CLEANING & MAINTENANCE The following list of components should be inspected and maintained routinely to ensure that the appliance is operating at its optimum and giving you excellent heat value: 2-3 Days / Weekly If after long periods of burning, the fire continually builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up of clinkers, this is an indication that the pellet fuel quality is poor or the stove may need cleaning.
MAINTENANCE ASH PAN FRESH AIR INTAKE (weekly) (season) The ash pan is located under the burner. Always dispose of the ashes into a metal container (never use cardboard, plastic or wood containers) stored away from combustibles. Monitor the ash level every week.

Refer to "Safety Warnings and Recommendations" for disposal of ashes.
