I inherited a Piazzetta Monia from previous owner. Absolutely love this stove - it's the centerpiece of our living room area.

I am trying to figure out how to clean the chimney. Instruction says I need to remove the tee cap and clean the pipes inside (pictured). Problem is my tee cup is sitting right against the floor mat (pictured) so no way to me to remove it. Any advice on cleaning this? Sorry, new to pellet stoves.

Just put a 45-degree elbow between your T and the pipe going up! you will have access to your chimney and also it will be centered!
