Trying to make sense of how a pellet stove work, so I have a couple of questions:
1. What is the purpose of the vacuum sensor?
2. My stove has a built-in heat tube cleaning mechanism and I can see the glow from the flame through the hole where the cleaning rod sticks out. I am perplexed as why this area is not air sealed with a gasket like the doors and windows. Furthermore, why is the seal on the door and windows so important when flame is fed by an air-intake/OAK?
