54 F outside, intermittent down pours, and the stoves have been idle since loading last night.

Took advantage to clean the glass, and the boost baffle. I had replaced the door latch 3 weeks ago and cleaned the baffle then.

I was suprised to see the amount of ash blocking the air holes from inside the baffle once i lifted it out.Pushed the PE hard when we had the cold snap, it did the job, but was running sluggish toward the end of it. Now I know why.

As an aside, keep your doghouse clean in you're Englanders, too.

Never thought to take out my tubes to clean them.....man, 3 years, 12+ cord. I always suck out the dog house and the tubes but never disassembled the tubes. I bet that would make a world of difference?
