Woke up the other morning,with smoke smell in my garage. I thank god it was the garage,and not the house as I heat both with pellets. I quickly checked the ash pan ,and it was full causing smoke smell to fill the garage. Just a word to the wise.

I empty mine twice a week usually. Depending on what I am burning, sometimes there is a lot and sometimes there is next to nothing and I could have easily gone a week. But, just do it anyway. Only takes a minute.
So, sounds like you need to empty the one in the garage every 2 to 3 days max. If you have an ash bucket there in the garage anyway, I would probably just do it every day. I burned NEWP the first half season we had the stove. I should try them again sometime as I've learned so much on this forum since then.
