AGP Stove
Weekly Maintenance (or Every 5 Bags of Pellets) - Inspect the Burn
Once a week you should inspect the flame quality inside your appliance. When burning on high, the
flames should be bright orange. If the flames seem to be coming only from the sides or are orange/black,
turn the heater off and check for clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump). The most likely causes of
clinkers are:
Restrictor needs adjustment (see “Restrictor Adjustment” in the Installation section of this manual)
NOTE
: The optimum restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust
system. See "Restrictor Adjustment" for details.
Poor pellet quality
The door or glass has an air leak
The exhaust system requires cleaning
Weekly Maintenance (or Every 5 Bags of Pellets) - Clean the Fire Platform
Once a week you should clean and inspect the fire platform. The following steps outline this process.
1. Open the door.
2. Remove the visual deflector. Note how the deflector has two hooks on each side that fit over pins to
the side of the burn platform.
NOTES ON REPLACING THE VISUAL DEFLECTOR
When in place, make sure the visual deflector is pressed down fully on both sides. If it is not fully
seated, airflow to the burn platform may be displaced and the appliance may burn poorly.
