Flyash will deposit along sections that are horizontal.

Make sure the cap is free of debris (especially if it has a screen that could become blocked).

Check the vent sections for creosote accumulation (indicating a poorly burning stove). Accumulation over 1/4” must be removed.

On vertically vented systems, the dirtiest portion is often the point where the vent turns upwards (i.e. the "Tee"). Fortunately, the "Tee" has a built-in clean out cover. Remove the cover and vacuum out. While open, use a flashlight to look up the pellet vent to check for build-up.

Warning: Whenever any portion of the pellet vent is disconnected, the joints must be sealed with RTV 500° F. silicone sealant.
