We have a Harman Accentra free standing stove. We also have wood floors. Every one who has hardwood floors knows that those dust bunnies gather fast every day and lots of them..
The air intake to heat the room is at the bottom and back of the stove and it sucks all the cold air from the floor into the heat chamber then blows the heated air out the top front of the stove.
I cut air filters to fit the air intake at the floor and fasten with tape or magnet and you would not believe the dust and dirt and dust bunnies that you can catch in that filter. I change it once a mo. and have no problems. I have been doing this for 3 years now with no problems and it keeps the air clean. I MAKE SURE NOTHING TOUCHES THE HOT EXHAUST PIPE..
I wonder if Harman has ever thought of making a filter for these stoves that you can just snap in place, take off, wash off and snap back on? Would make it a lot easier.
I'm trying to find those plastic air filters that you find in window air conditioners that you just rinse off and reuse. I could cut to fit and hold in place with magnet. I have looked every place and can't find them..Any ideas where to find them??
