FEATURES:
• A patented double filter system allows ash to be removed from wood stoves, pellet stoves or replaces without emitting
dust.
• The outer and inner filters may be cleaned without removing the lid. Agitation of the lter support basket, located between
the outer and inner lters allows both lters to be cleaned without removing the lid.
• The outer filter is fire retardant as a precaution in the event a hot spark should accidentally hit the lter.
• An inner filter traps sub-micron particles that are allowed through the outer lter. The lter covers a spring mounted cage
which allows the lter to be cleaned without removing the lid.
• The hose is metal to give you greater exibility. Only vacuum cold to warm ash. Excessive heat will melt the vinyl coating
on the hose.
• The metal nozzle allows ash to be removed quickly while larger particles are left behind to be burned at a later date.
