Harman XXV hole glass

[Mikesorel]

HI! I've got an Harman XXV and there is little hole near the glass to push air and automacally clean it.

This air is from the combustion blower but how can I clean these hole ?

They are full of ash and the vaccum is not enough.

Regards.

Mike

I use compressed air thru the back of the stove first thru the air inlet (door closed)then go to the front of the stove (door open)and use compressed air while holding a vacuum to prevent ash getting airborne. I believe there’s a video on YouTube from Don222 who’s a member here. Look up “cleaning harman airwash”

No, the air is drawn from the air intake. But I think you know this, just got lost in translation. There are several other ways, But what Don and other stove techs do is the "quick and dirty" way, probably will get a little dust in a house, but to be fair, you should only have to do it 1 time a year.

Have yet to do that to my Harmon XXV. New in 2018. Seems messy. Heating Season is almost over for it. Down to 1/2 day now.

Yep,seems like some installations are much more forgiving.

Thanks for your reply 👌👌My XXV is from 2007 and it running fine. I hope I will get another 15 years from him 🤞

So what is source of air for the glass cleaner, combustion fan or fresh air port?

Fresh air port. If you ever remove the housing the little flapper is in, that a hose for outside air can connect to, look to the left, and that is usually where the hole for it is.
