I’m curious what kind of vacuum your use to clean your stove? I have not made the purchase yet and wanted to get some input on what to buy.

So you then wait until your stove is complete cooled off before cleaning it? I have seen ash vacuums but then seem kind of pricey....
Exactly. That is the one trade-off. Spend $200+ and suck out the hot ashes or wait until they are cooled to use the shop vac. I wait ~ 30 minutes and have never had a problem. The fly ash is nearly burnt anyway. It is the stuff in the burn pot that you have to watch out for.
Got ya thanks for your reply I already have a Ridgeway wet vac with a sheetrock filter also.... might just use it as well. I think i just have to get a brisol extension peice and im good to go.
Thanks agian.
