Browsing my manual looking for a piece of information came across the below information. Sounds crazy to me.
HOW TO COOL IT IN THE SUMMER
Empty and clean the firebox of all ashes at the end of the heating season.
1.
Fill four containers (plastic milk containers work very well) with water and freeze.
2. Place frozen containers inside the cleaned firebox on their sides.
3. Close doors and all dampers and switch the fan to the "manual" setting. This by-passes the
thermostat so the fan will run continuously.
Four one gallon frozen containers will provide reasonable cooling. Don't expect your stove to
cool as well as It heats, but this is a nice, extra feature for your benefit.
