Check Firepot for
Clinkers
If the flames seem to be
coming only from the sides,
or are orange/black, turn
the stove off and check for
clinkers.
The most likely causes are:
• Poor pellet quality
• The door or glass has
an air leak
• The exhaust system
requires cleaning
• The stove requires
adjustment
Cleaning the Firepot
WARNING:
Make sure the stove
has fully cooled
(approximately 25
minutes) before
opening the door and
conducting service.
To clean the firepot, open
the door (see page 27) and
knock away any debris on
the firepot with a
screwdriver. If severely
clogged, remove the
firepot to gain better
access.
