Air Leaks (continued)
Ash Pan Seal
The trap door above the ash pan seals air from entering the firebox. Check the items below to ensure the trap door is
sealing.
The trap door is pressed against the firebox with
this pressure plate. If the trap door does not
press firmly against the firebox, tighten the four
nuts on the pressure plate appropriately.

Pull the trap door out. Carefully
inspect it to make sure it is not
warped.
Clean the trap door and
underside of firebox. Slide
the trap door back in place.
Air Inlet Blocked
In rare cases the air inlet becomes blocked. Snow or debris can clog the opening. The flexible aluminum duct can be
flattened.
To verify the air inlet is functional, remove the air inlet hose from the stove. If stove performance improves dramatically,
the air inlet may be restricted or blocked.
