For my Lopi AGP insert, do you wait for the maintenance team to do their job come spring? I'm looking at the instructions. Looks dooable, but pretty heavy. I figure at the very least I need to watch them very, very closely when they clean in May.

I have been thinking about the Lawn Blower Trick, and need to investigate the chimney attachment to see how difficult it will be. If I do it, do I open any doors, or draw all air through the outside air intake?

30 bags in so far.

Leaf blower trick - vacuum port on leaf blower attached to outside end of the exhaust vent (likely on your roof since it is an insert). Vacuum switch tubing in the body of the stove should be disconnected.
