No... something is wrong here. I have a cousin who works with this orphan who's mother used tknow this barber who shared a cell with a man who had a pellet stove and his "didn't do that." You should call your dealer where you bought this and have him come out and "fix it." Something's just not right.

Wow... Im surprised there wasnt a bunch of Naysayers on the cleanings??
3 yrs ago, before I found this site, I shut down daily, and cleaned the exchange tubes, pot, and vac'd the box..... Looking back, it was a good learning experience. Now, I think its crazy. Vent will be done yearly, ash pan when full (or slightly above full/see pic above/ ash pan is 8"-10" over full
)
Any pics Eric? I always enjoy seeing your volcanic ash piles in your stoves!! That PS-50 in your shop has forever been.burned in my head. And to think that people have problems with Heatilators!?! They should have seen that box. It was FULL. Ash was almost falling back into the pot!!

Only when ash falls down and affects the burn/performance

I am at work right now but will get some up when I get home. I have emptied the ash pan but not cleaned the burn pot or firebox.

The only problem with that picture is that the Yuengling is "Light Lager" and not the regular Lager. I always have a barrel of Lager on tap or at least a few boxes of it in the miser. Also helps that I am 15 minutes from the brewery.

I prefer their black and tan during pellet season and switch to light lager for the warmer months. Keep mine in the fridge or back porch though.
Nice lookin' stove, too.
