This is useful in removing ash as it lets the user remove the ashes without opening the door to the stove. Certain advanced models of multifuel stoves have a "cleanburn" technology that boosts combustion air at the beginning of a fire to ignite it quickly and then shuts off the primary control so the fire can only be controlled by the secondary control.
