4. Cleaning Ash Drawer
• Frequency:
Weekly or every 5 bags of fuel
• By: Homeowner
a. There must not be any hot ashes in the ash drawer
when you empty it, so allow the appliance to
completely cool.
b. Locate the ash drawer underneath the fire pot.
Slide the ash drawer straight out. Empty into a
non-combustible container and re-install the ash
drawer. See section on
Disposal of Ashes
on
page 17 ).
c. Always have the ash drawer in place before pulling
the firepot cleaning rod, otherwise the ashes will
fall down and fill the outside air opening and the
appliance will produce soot out of the exhaust and
will affect efficiency.
5. Disposal of Ashes
• Frequency: As needed
• By:
Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.

6. Cleaning the Exhaust Path, Baffles & Drop Tube
• Frequency:
Monthly or every 25 bags or more
frequently depending on ash build-up.
• By:
Homeowner
a. Appliance must be completely cool.
b. Open the door and remove the center baffle first
and then the right and left baffles. See section
on
Baffle Instructions
on page 26 . Thoroughly
vacuum the exhaust path and drop tube and
continue throughout the rest of the firebox. Also
vacuum the front and back of the baffles.
c. Also vacuum the combustion blower impellers or
use a soft brush to remove any ash build-up.
Replace the right and left baffles and then the center baffle
and close and latch the door.
7. Cleaning the Hopper
• Frequency: Monthly or after burning 50 bags of fuel
• By:
Homeowner
After burning approximately 50 bags of fuel you will need to
clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up.
A combination of sawdust and pellets on the bottom end of
the auger reduces the amount of fuel supply to the fire pot.
This can result in nuisance shutdowns and mis-starts.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown.
Allow the appliance to completely run out of pellets
and cool down.
b. Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.
c. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube.
NOTE: Hearth & Home Technologies recommends to
use a heavy duty vacuum cleaners specifically
designed for solid fuel appliance cleaning.
