I have had a Castle Serenity for last 3 yrs. works well and like it. I do the maintenance that’s outlined in manual. Should I be doing anything periodically in the hopper area as well? I was reading on this forum about hopper fires and wanted to make sure I’m doing whatever is needed to prevent that. Thanks in advance.
 
if you keep your stove and venting clean and running efficiently you don't have to worry about a hopper fire
