Often, the pellets in your stove may not burn to their full potential. This is commonly due to improper servicing, which leads to the accumulation of gases in the chimney and the pipes of your fireplace. Over time, soot buildup in these pipes can decrease the efficiency of your wood pellets. To maintain maximum efficiency, it’s essential to regularly service or clean your pellet stove.

There are several critical steps involved in servicing or cleaning a pellet stove. It’s advisable to hire a trained professional for this task. If you prefer to handle it yourself, here’s a checklist to follow:

• Visual Inspection: Look for any defects or excessive ash buildup around the stove’s borders.

• Vacuuming: Ensure you vacuum the interior to remove any dirt or ash.

• Heat Exchanger: Professionals often recommend removing and reinstalling the pellet stove to ensure the heat exchanger is clean and functioning correctly.

In addition to pellet stove maintenance, other essential services include dryer vent cleaning, chimney repairs, and chimney inspections.
