The XXV burned though it's first ton without a hitch. Today marked the first full tear down/cleaning and inspection for the stove.
I hear a lot on this forum that if you don't have pictures it never happened so you asked for it.![Smile :) :)](/talk/styles/default/xenforo/smileys/grin.gif)
My goal is to post the pictures in an organized fashion, each post relating to a specific stove area. Venting is included as well. It may take a while.
This is my first experaince cracking open the stove and digging in. So just how dirty is this stove going to be?

Pellets burned:
46 Geneva
2 Energex
2 Hearthsides
2 Maine Wood Pellet Company

Pellet Vent Pro 4" , 1 Cleanout Tee, 12ft Vertical through attic
Stove settings (majority of time):
Feed Rate 4
Room Temp Auto 74 deg
Convection Blower Low
Damper on intake to prevent "woofing"

Stove location and vent configuration. Vent passes though the attic and terminates
2 feet above the roof line. Clean out tee is behind the stove.
