8. DOOR GLASS
The Napier is equipped with a self
-
cleaning glass air wash system. A discolouration can form
after a long
‘
low
’
burn, but 30 minutes of
‘
high
’
burn should clear it from the glass.
Clean glass with wet newspaper dipped in ash from the firebox, then wipe glass.
Do NOT clean the glass while hot
.
CAUTION:
THIS FIRE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED WITH A CRACKED GLASS.
If a replacement of glass is required:
GLASS MUST BE REPLACED WITH FIRENZO CERAMIC GLASS
Insulating material for the glass should be replaced at this time also. NEVER place glass
directly against the door. Without the insulation seal tape in place, the glass is likely to
shatter. Your Firenzo dealer will be able to supply any spare parts.
9. MAINTENANCE
SECONDARY CHAMBER:
The baffles (horizontal bricks in the ceiling of firebox) are critical to the Fires performance.
They should be checked annually during flue cleaning and replaced if signs of deterioration
are evident.
1.
Remove any soot and creosote build
-
up from the secondary chamber,.
2. Check baffles.
FLUE:
Creosote is caused by burning wet fuel, leaving particles and condensation to build up on the
inside of any closed solid fuel Fire. Creosote and soot left to build up can cause
decreased heat performance and flue fires. Your heating retailer or local reputable chimney
sweep will be able to assist with flue cleaning. Before commencing the flue clean it is best to
remove the baffles to avoid breakages. To access the baffle bricks open door, lift the brick,
slide forward and drop down and remove.
DOOR HANDLE AND HINGES:
Light Lubrication is recommended once a year before the first autumn burn. Use a little
GRAPHITE Grease, available from any garage or engineering outlet. Take care not to over wind
the nut on handle. AS this will strip the spindle thread.
