chimney sweep if you have doubts about your
ability to clean it. Use a plastic or flexible steel
brush. Do not use a stiff brush that will scratch
the stainless steel liner of your system.
2. PelletVent Pro systems must be installed
so that access is provided for inspection and
cleaning.

once every month during the heating season.

damage the vent pipe.

all exterior metal parts with high temperature,
rustproof paint. This is highly recommended,
particularly in areas near the ocean.
