When you guys do your final cleanout for the season... (no more heating days ). Do you empty the hopper? or just leave what is left in there? Probably a dumb question, but figure I should ask just incase there is some negative to leaving it partially full).
TIA,

Unless you have moisture /dampness issues there`s no need to do anything. Moisture or excessive dampness in any home should really be addressed for obvious reasons.
My stove is in the finished basement and as such , I do run a dehumidifier in the summer months when the humidity down there rises..With regards to the stove I leave it as is till I do a full cleaning in early september. The remaining pellets in the hopper stay as stable as when first poured in.
