4. Allow the stove to burn for about 15 to 20 minutes with the door cracked one-half
inch (½”).
5. You can close the door completely, but leave the draft controls open. Allow the stove
to burn 10 to 15 minutes in this mode.
6. Close the by-pass damper and burn the unit for another 5 minutes.
7. Once the combustor is accepting the fumes, the slide damper can be adjusted to
your preferred setting.
E. Ash Removal and Disposal
Regularly inspect the ash build-up in your stove and remove as necessary. Ashes
should be placed in a metal container with an airtight lid. Pending final disposal, the
ashes should be placed on a non-combustible surface or on the ground, completely
away from all combustible materials. The ashes should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. If you have a masonry or pre-
manufactured system, it is essential that your flue be checked for creosote at least once
per month.
SECTION VI: CARE AND MAINTENANCE
A. Catalytic Maintenance and Replacement
Note – Your unit will have a 3” thick, 25-cell combustor (manufactured by Applied Ceramics),
or it will have a 1” thick, “ceramic foam” type combustor (manufactured by Clear Skies). The
following instructions apply to both types, unless otherwise specified.
1. To reach the catalytic combustor, first take out the flame impingement plate by
removing the four (4) 3/8” brass nuts (they take a 9/16” wrench).
Once the nuts are
removed the plate should drop from the bolts and allow you to see the bottom of your
combustor.
2. For 25-cell Applied Ceramics combustor : If the combustor is plugged up you will see
black soot within the cells on the bottom side of the ceramic piece. This can usually be
removed by brushing the combustor with a soft bristled brush. You can also run a pipe
stem cleaner through each cell for removal of any internal build-up. This type cleaning
can be done without removing the combustor from the stove.
For 1” thick Clear Skies combustor: Follow the instructions provided by Clear
Skies pertaining to the cleaning of their combustor.
3. The flame impingement plate (Part #IP-24JC) is located inside the stove and is
removed as described earlier. (Note that it should be replaced if it becomes distorted.)
4. The catalytic combustor (Part #AC-6C3) is guaranteed by Applied Ceramics or Clear
Skies, the manufacturers. A separate warranty card will be in the manual for this part
and should be mailed back to the combustor manufacturer. Both combustors are
equivalent, and in the event there is a problem with this item, the manufacturer
should be contacted as listed below.
