But I wouldn’t recommend cleaning the chimney just in case, always get a professional chimney sweep to do it. A chimney fire isn’t worth it. I’m afraid not, neither shop vacuums or household vacuum cleaners are up to the job of vacuuming up ash which involves big chunks and small dust particles at the same time. Not to mention residual heat. The whole thing is nice and lightweight so lugging it out the cupboard is easy. Yet the suction is powerful and the HEPA filter allows for effective clean up with no fine dust getting sprayed around your room. Compared to the Karher or the Deville it doesn’t quite hold up, they have better filtration systems and more capacity but for the price I’m impressed. Our selection of quality vacuum cleaners includes models from top manufacturers like Beldray, Blaupunkt, Goodmans, Henry, Hoover, Tower and even RAC! From cordless vacuums for your car to handheld vacuums for small spaces to high-powered turbo models for tough surfaces, we have something to help you keep your space tidy and clean.

Best Ash Vacuum For Wood Burning Stove – BACOENG Ash Vacuum Cleaner with Double Stage Filtration System This model upgrades from the previous one by adding in an extra 5L of storage bringing it up to a 20L capacity. So it will need emptying more often but that’s more than big enough to finish any job you have at hand. Whether or not you need to empty it after every use will vary on how much ash you need to clean. Again, to be clear, please don’t vacuum up ashes as soon as you’re finished with the fire, wherever it is. Don’t vacuum up immediately after you’ve had a barbeque, or before going to bed as a way to put your wood stove out.What I love about this ash vac, in particular, is it comes with a regular head on it so you can use it as an everyday vacuum too! It’s got good suction power and a nice big canister so you can get all your clean up done in no time. Overall: The best ash vacuum cleaner you can buy in the UK, it comes at a higher price but when you factor in it doubles as a regular vacuum you’re on to a winner. Hot ash vacuums, on the other hand, are designed to handle hot ashes, but this normally means up to about 50 degrees Celsius. So please don’t try and vacuum up ashes while they’re still on fire! And compared to the Karcher of the De Ville above this is about half the price, which for me is a big plus, but it depends how much you value convenience, if you wanted the convenience then either of those will also work great for a pellet stove. It’s also got a nice and long 1.5 m hose so you can get right into every nook and cranny of your stove and get rid of all the wood ash.

With superb fittings and features to help you reach any awkward space and to ensure that your floors and carpets look at good as new every time, you need look no further than this great range of household electricals at B&M Cordless Vacuum Cleaners They are just big metal canisters made with more durable and heat resistant motors and metal lined hoses. The ash gets put in the canister then the air that has to escape goes through one or two filters to get rid of any small dust particles before fresh air is expelled out the exhaust.More specifically, anywhere between 18-25L is going to be more than big enough. While smaller than that will be fine for smaller fires and barbecues, you’ll just have to empty it more often.

Overall, a great ash vacuum for a pellet stove. Great price, good suction, compact body, no complaints at all. Can It Take Hot Ashes Pretty straight forward. Allow the ashes to cool overnight, ideally spreading them out so they can cool off completely. Then in the morning plug in your ash vacuum and use it as you would any other vacuum. With specialist models available - including vacuums for households with pets and for wet and dry applications, why not browse our selection of vacuum cleaners and electricals online or shop in stores at B&M? I really enjoyed using the Valiant FIR274, I had to borrow my friends pellet stove, by which I mean I asked him if I could clean it and he obviously said yes, and this worked nicely.But if you’re only looking at occasional use, or you don’t mind the extra hassle it does a great job with the vacuuming itself. A nice wide 1.2 m long hose to reach right in any wood burner, stove, charcoal grill or whatever other ash you’re vacuuming out. I found for my wood burner the wheels don’t add much as I carry it inside from the shed. But they do stop the floor getting scratched if I accidentally yank the hose so I suppose that’s a plus. I also liked that it’s got an indicator that tells you when the filter is clogging, once it’s 100% covered a light turns red that lets you know it’s time to empty and clean the filter. Pellet stoves can create a lot of ash so you need a good quality vacuum to help you deal with it and clean it out. As with all ash vacuums they are only designed for cold ash, the next day when you’re getting ready to light the fire again. Tired of getting tangled up with the vacuum wires? Get yourself a new cordless vacuum cleaner for a great price at B&M. Well in Ash Vacuums it does matter a little but still not majorly. Unless you know you have an especially big fire pit then most standard sizes will be fine.

If you need to clean ash from a wood-burning stove this is the vacuum for you. It’s got a large capacity at 20 litres so you won’t have to continuously empty it and it’s got an overheat prevention mechanism in the engine so even if the ash isn’t as cold as you thought it won’t heat up and break the motor. bash it against a wall before you take it inside too to get the worst of it off before you trail it through the house.

But, the Karcher is made with flame-resistant material and heat-resistant metal so that if your ashes are still warm in the morning you’ll be able to vacuum them up no problem. Best wait till they’re as cool as possible but this provides that extra safety net and won’t ruin your vacuum.
