Remove the surround panels 
(see page 11).  Disconnect 
the vent and pull the insert 
forward to gain better access.
Clean the Vent (make sure the heater and vent is cool)
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.
Make sure the cap is free of debris 
(especially if it has a screen that could 
become blocked).
Flyash will deposit along 
sections that are horizontal.

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