ASH PAN AND DOOR GASKETS (weekly)
After extended use the gasketing may come loose. To repair this, glue the gasketing on using high-
temperature fiberglass gasket glue available from your local ENVIRO dealer. This is important to maintain
an airtight assembly.
ASH PAN (weekly)
The ash pan is located under the burner. Dump the ashes into a metal container stored away from
combustibles. Monitor the ash level every week. Remember that different pellet fuels will have different
ash contents. Ash content is a good indication of fuel efficiency and quality. Refer to “I

” for disposal of ashes.

ash pan out.
DO NOT PLACE UNBURNED OR RAW PELLET FUEL IN ASH PAN.

Routine Cleaning and Maintenance
HEAT EXCHANGER TUBES (weekly)
Open the door and the rod is located under the unit
top, in the center of the stove just behind the door (see
Figure 4). This handle is to be pushed in and out a few
times (ONLY WHEN THE UNIT IS COLD) in order
to clean away any fly ash that may have collected on
the heat exchanger tubes. As different types of pellets
produce different amounts of ash, cleaning of the tubes
should be done on a regular basis to enable the unit to
run efficiently.
Figure 4: Heat Exchanger Tube Cleaner. FRESH AIR INTAKE (season)
Inspect periodically to be sure that it is not clogged with any foreign materials.
EXHAUST VENT (season)
This vent should be cleaned every year or after two (2) tons of pellets. We recommend contacting your
dealer for professional cleaning. To clean the vent pipe, tap lightly on the pipe to dislodge any loose ash.
Open the bottom of the “T” to dump the ash, then vacuum as much of the ash out of the vent pipe as
possible.
BLOWER MECHANISMS (season)
Unplug the stove then open the right and left side panels to access the two blowers. Vacuum all dust
from motors. DO NOT lubricate the motors. Check gaskets and replace if needed.
ALL HINGES (season)
Check all the hinges on the unit to ensure proper movement.
