Hearth.com has been an invaluable resource for me for the past 12 years burning wood however I just became a member. I really need some guidance and I know this is the place to get it.
The years are creeping up on me so decided to switch to a pellet stove this year. To get my feet wet I purchased a used Harman Accentra 2. While a little undersized for my home, it's a great stove other than I have a huge ash issue that I don't know how to remedy. Please tell me why in a matter of 4 days the stove will go from throughly cleaned to the amount of ash in the heat exchangers shown in the picture. I seriously appreciate anyone's input. Thank you in advance!
