Nice to be back !! Burned well last year, and back to gain more knowledge from you pyros ! So tell me, Do I have to take the stove "Heritage Hearthstone" apart for a total cleanig? or will a good sweep of the pipe be ok?
 
A good thorough cleaning/inspection should be all you need to do. Check all the seals, cast iron, glass, ect. Only reason to dissa. stove is for obvious issues like cracks, gaps and air leaks.
 
Give her a little breakin fire as well to burn out any moisture the soapstone might of sucked up during the humid summer days.
