England's Stove Works 55TRPAH, 25PAH, 55SHPAH manual

Using a utility type vacuum cleaner, , vacuum the fly ash out of the exhaust chamber. A short piece of hose can be attached to the end of the utility vacuum line and can be useful in reaching the ash which accumulates between the clean‐out ports.

A specially designed ash vacuum and pellet stove cleaning kit is available from the England’s Stove Works website; please see: http://www.englanderstoves.com/store/.

Once all ash has been removed from the exhaust chamber, reinstall the cleanout port covers, using the screws previously removed.

Be certain to tighten the screws down to sufficiently seal the cleanout port covers, but do not over‐tighten them, as it possible to damage the screw.

Venting Pipe Cleaning

Low spots and direction changes in the venting system (such as tee’s and elbows) are areas for potential fly‐ash and creosote accumulation. INSPECT these areas diligently to keep the venting system in safe operating condition.

Depending on the specific type of venting system your stove is connected to, it may be possible to remove the clean‐out tee cover and simply run a pipe brush up the pipe to remove any fly‐ash accumulation. Brushes specifically made for cleaning pellet pipe are available at the retailer where you bought this stove, as well as at most hearth product dealers.

Horizontal runs of pipe, such as from the exhaust connection on the stove to the vertical transition, will accumulate fly ash and should be inspected carefully and brushed clean.

Check the termination cap to be certain is not clogged or restricted by any fly‐ash accumulation.

After thoroughly cleaning the venting system, reseal any disassembled seams with high temperature silicone (Part # AC‐RTV3) if applicable to your venting system.

Inspect seams that were not disassembled to be certain a smoke‐tight seal is still being made.

After prolonged use, leaks in the venting system can usually be found by searching for fly‐ash deposits on the outside of the pipe. Carefully check for leaks in the venting system and seal them accordingly.

Although most pellet venting systems are designed to last a lifetime, pellet fly‐ash can be corrosive under certain conditions. When cleaning your venting system, examine the pipe carefully for any signs of deterioration and replace sections that show excessive wear. It is unlikely that this will ever be a concern, but maintaining your venting system in safe operating condition is crucial to safe stove operation.
