Heatmaster certifies water samples every season.  The only reason you'd have to drain and refill is if they tell you to.  I wouldn't recommend it, because you'll be out as much as $120 for treatment for a 10,000E stove.

Ya,,,,, I was advised to drain mine by the guy that sells the conditioner........

Oops!   

I'd look over your owners manual and do what it says.

Woodmaster requires you drain and refill with conditioner every year .
Probably because the conditioner breaks down, like I said earlier.
Cost of conditioner is not much of a factor.
I'm surprised that one company recommends draining it, and others don't.
Any Ideas.
New thread,,, to drain,, or not to drain

I had a woodmaster demo that was twenty years old when I quite using and never drained, but added anti corrosion every year.

Thats probably why it only lasted 20 years!

I may add a quart or two and top it off with water and run it for 48 hours and then shut it down.[May ,not now]
With all the different opinions ,,,,split the difference and flush, re-fill every 2 years.
Hopefully I will be dead before it rots out .......wait a minute.........
