ashcontentsdependingonwhattypeofwoodhasbeenused
tomakethepellets.We recommend to clean the system
after approximately 1 ton of pellets have been burned and
judge from that how often the stove should be cleaned,
remember if you change pellets it may change how often
you have to clean your stove.
Whenburningwoodslowly,thepotentialexistsforcreosote

buildup has occurred. If a significant layer of creosote
hasaccumulated(3mmormore),itshouldberemovedto
reducethe riskof achimney re. If a re occurs, callthe
re department, shut down the stove, and evacuate the
residence. Before using the appliance, have the venting
