Hi-
Let me begin by saying I'm new to pellet stoves and am still learning. With that in mind I just had a Quadra-Fire Castile insert put in and have noticed that the firepot cleaning rod is a bit tough to pull out initially (the stove has been off for a few hours prior to me doing this in the morning). Is this typical or do I have a potentially "bum" firepot cleaning rod/linkage/etc...? Don't get me wrong, it's not impossible to pull out...just seems difficult (then again, I'm new to pellet stoves so this may be typical of the model).
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Seth
