Looking into the stove through the glass, the bottom auger rotates counter-clockwise. This motion pushes the pellets to the right side of the burn plate. Maybe this is the answer?

 

[Jimrig]

did not do it before i clean it. plus the other stove is not doing it. jim

Guess #2: Maybe the entire burn pot assembly is not level?

check the cleanout behind the baffle plate , when they get backed up that can happen

What is the hole pattern in your burn pot. The bottom row in my harmon is offset to one side

I have a quadra fire and mine does the same thing now. Fire and ash buildup is always to the right.

ash buildup migrates to the right due to exhaust fan location....I also have a quad...

Hmmm...possible PhD thesis fodder.....? Do right-handed guys hand to the right, and left-handed's to the left? Any correlation there, I wonder?

My flame leans to the right, as do I.
