NOTE:
Chimney Cleaning
When cleaning the chimney system the air tubes, baffles should be removed for ease of cleaning. See manual for details on removal.
We highly recommend that the chimney cleaning be done by a professional as they will have the necessary tools such as a proper
sized brush and special vacuum cleaner designed to deal with fine particles.
IMPORTANT:
Before attempting to loosen or remove any screw, bolt from the interior of a wood stove, insert or factory built fireplace that has had
a fire burned in it, we highly recommend to liberally spray the screw/bolt with a good-quality penetrating oil, one that does not have
flammable properties contained within the penetrating oil being used. Allow it to set, then tap or vibrate the screw or bolt to help
loosen it before attempting to remove it. For best results, follow the instructions that are provided with the penetrating oil.
