Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During
start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of
the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling
to the glass surface. Also, initial paint curing may deposit a slight
film on the glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be
cleaned two or three times with a non-abrasive household cleaner
and warm water (we recommend gas fireplace glass cleaner) after
the initial burn. We do not recommend using packaged spray type
household glass cleaner. After that, the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each heating season depending on the
circumstances present.
