I'm up for learning about the modified door. My Castile still has the airwash at the top, which doesn't work worth crap and when I open the door, I get ashes on the 'boss's' floor. NOT GOOD.

Great You're next
I wanted to be next darn it! My stove area looks like Jay's from this weekend, been testing pellets and have jars full of ash all over. Toss in some springs and stuff and all will be perfect. All those posts about installing in a basement, and no one ever mentions "because I'm a mad scientist and have stuff all over" to the list to justify having the stove downstairs rather than in the livingroom.

Step right up Czech,
Your assignment should you choose to accept it is to install a larger convection blower on your stove. I understand that the cooler you can keep that side of the heat exchanger the more heat you can extract from the fire.
Now let's not go overboard and find a 3000 CFM blower because likely your stove would toss its electrical cookies trying to run that thing.
Remember doing modifications likely voids your warranty and invalidates all certifications.
I have an ulterior motive here so best I disclose it now, I'm going to be replacing my convection with a larger flow one before the season ends. So I need a lab rat to test the theory.
Then another person can pull everything together in sort of an ultimate test.
