OK.. Hold an incense, lit cigarette or a small smoldering piece of card board where the inlets are for those tubes.. I'll bet ya it moves air a lot better than you think.

Yes Lightning, The Amish dealer has the D.S. Circulator 1300 (smallest circulator model) in his showroom. It was running at very low settings, He had not yet tended it from the previous day. We slowly ran a lighter across the top of stove. The flame of the lighter went crazy when crossing over the circulator tubes. I dare say the flame would blow out if the stove was cranking. Oliver

If the tubes are wide enough, try rolling a ping-pong ball under the stove and see if it gets sucked into and then emerges out the top of one of the tubes. The current might be sufficient to actually do this. Hmm???

But just in case it gets stuck in a tube, be sure the ping-pong ball you are using is not made of nitrocellulose.

the circulator tubes have like a grating at the top. Not sure of bottom.
