My Pellet Stove Vacuum Cleaner

Cleaning out my pellet stove is a chore. Fortunately, my pellet stove vacuum cleaner makes this chore as easy as slicing warm butter with a chainsaw.
I got a sweet as blueberry pie deal on my pellet stove two years ago. I love it! I did not have to knock a hole into my chimney for a vent. I don't have to have cords of wood delivered that people steal from me anyway. I don't have to split logs. I don't have to pay an arm and a leg to have my chimney cleaned.

The list of reasons I love my pellet stove goes on and on.

I did have one complaint about my pellet stove however. I hated cleaning the ash the is left over from the burned pellets out of the belly of my stove. I don't just hate scooping out those ashes I despise, detest, and resent those ashes and the mess that they make when I scoop them out. I did this scooping of the ashes for a whole winter season.

Why oh why didn't someone try to sell me a warm ash vacuum when they sold me my pellet stove. Of course I would have said no on the spot. Who needs a silly vacuum to clean ashes out of a stove. Apparently, I do. I would have been there the very next day after scooping ashes out of the bottom of my pellet stove for the first time.

It took a whole year of scooping ashes before I learned of the existence of a vacuum that would suck up warm ashes. Now I can't live without it. I have thrown away my shovel, scoop, and metal ash bucket.

My pellet stove vacuum is so strong that it gives my pellet stove hickeys!

I'm never again going to look like a coal miner after cleaning out my pellet stove. No more canaries to check the air quality in the room before letting the kids back in to play. The carpet around my pellet stove is clean and ash free. I can actually see the bricks of my hearth and the grout is white again.

Looking back over the last few paragraphs I think I went a little overboard with my descriptions but I think you get the point. I have come to rely on My pellet stove vacuum. It's a tool that no pellet stove owner should live without.
