Just installed the ae. So far i am loving the stove. Still trying to figure out the best setting for curran north american blend. I have it on hardwood + 1 as of now and it seems pretty good. When i installed the adapter (first piece off stove) it had a little play. About 1/8 inch on all sides. We took off the side panel and sealed it with sealant through there. I was wondering how tight that fit usually is?? All in all running good. No leaks. I had to buy a different thimble manufacturer thimble to do through a thick wall. The one i got was made to extend. Also, how much ash us acceptable in firebox til u need to vacuum?
 
I vac mine once a month with my thorough cleanings.
