Maintenance and cleaning Thermostove with self-cleaning brazier
Check every 2/3 days
Cleaning the ash collection compartment
Clean and empty the ash tray being careful with
hot ash. The ash must be completely cold for a
vacuum cleaner to be used to remove it. Only if the
ash is completely cold, you can also use a canister
vacuum cleaner suitable for picking up particles of
a certain size.
Cleaning ash and combustion chamber
including the spark plug lead.
Cleaning of stainless steel and satin-finish
surfaces
Normally these surfaces do not need to be treated,
but if they do, avoid cleaning them with abrasive
materials. For surfaces in stainless and satin brushed
steel we recommend cleaning with a paper towel or
a clean dry cloth moistened with a detergent based
on non-ionic surfactants (<5%) A spray glass cleaner
may be used.
Cleaning of painted pats
Do not clean the painted parts with wet rags when
the unit is in operation or hot to prevent thermal
shock to the paint which may cause it to detach.
Do not use abrasive or aggressive products or
materials. Clean with damp cotton or paper towels.
The silicon paints used by manufacturer possess
technical characteristics that make them resistent
to very high temperatures. There is however a
physical limit (380° C - 400° C) beyond which the
paint begins to fade or (over 450°) to vitrify; it may
then flake and detach from the steel surface. If this
happens, it means that temperatures have been
reached that are far above those at which the unit
should operate properly.
Self-cleaning brazier cleaning
Clean the brazier from the ash and any rest with the
appropriate tool. They could obstruct the air passages.
If the pellet in the tank is exhausted, there might be
a residual unburnt pellets in the brazier. If the pellet
in the tank is exhausted, there might be a residual
unburnt pellets in the brazier. It’s also important to
clean the ash accumulated inside of the combustion
room around the brazier. The frequency of this
operation depends on the use of the thermostove.
Reduced or failed cleaning may
cause a failed ignition with conse-
quent damage to the thermostove
and the environment (possible emissions
of unburnt and soot). Do not re-introduce
the pellets that may be present in the bra-
zier for non-ignition.
Cleaning exchanger - thermostove off
Fouling act as insulation and the thicker they are, the
lower the heat that is transmitted to the water and
to the structure generally. Therefore very important
to perform the cleaning of the tube bundle, said
exchanger also, to prevent the fouling of the same
and prevent clogging and jamming of the cleaning
device. Pull and push quickly for 5-6 times the lever
so that the springs can remove the soot deposited
on the pipes.
Avoid contact with skin cleanser
and eyes. In case this happens,
sprinkle with plenty of water and
contact the nearest medial center.
Do not use abrasive materials or
harsh. Clean with damp cotton or
paper towels.
