Hello,
I just finished taking apart my pellet vent pipe for cleaning. The good thing is I discovered that it's ExcelPellet pipe with the orange gaskets so it went back together easily. However I would like to make sure that there are no leaks. I really don't want to wait until I fire the stove up with the first fire because if there is a leak then I would have to screw around with the pipe when I actually need the stove for heat. Are there any tricks for getting smoke going in the stove besides a full going fire? I can get the exhaust blower going to suck out the smoke and therefore check the flue. Any ideas or recommendations?
