13 | MAINTENANCE
A wood stove actually requires very little
maintenance. The checks to be carried out
periodically are more or less the same as for
an open fire: check and clean the flue, remove
the residual ash, etc.
If the oven produces too much smoke, make
sure the wood is not too damp, or that there
are no unburned coals in the oven. Make sure
the flame is still alive, with gradual but steady
fire, to prevent incomplete combustion. Be
sure the ventilation system is sufficient and
working correctly and has been cleaned if
necessary.
Never put out the fire with water.
Suitable material used for lighting the fire:
avoid alcohol, gasoline and other fuels subject
to explosion or high flammability.
To safeguard your health and also not to
pollute the environment do not
burned
cardboard, paper, plastic or other waste
materials,
containing
resins
or
toxic
chemicals.
Pay attention to the phenomenon of the
spontaneous combustion!
Closing the wood oven overheats because of
a lack of oxygen; in the moment that is going
to remove the door, the sudden input of a
large amount of oxygen could trigger the
spontaneous combustion of the firewood that
would cause a violent reaction with
dangerous flare-ups. Flare-ups can leak from
the oven also has a couple of meters!
The fire should only require small amounts of
wood adding throughout service, remember
unnecessarily high temperatures create
strong expansion that could cause cracks in
the structure.
PERIODIC OPERATIONS IN OVEN
a) Clean daily the hob with a brush before
turning on the oven.
b) Remove any food residues .
c) Do not use water or other liquids to clean
the inside of the oven.
d) Whenever the oven reaches the cooking
temperature, any debris from previous
service will disappear.
e) Clean the exterior surfaces with a dry cloth,
avoiding the use of solvents or products
containing abrasives or dyes.
f)Check the chimney at least once a year.
Periodic cleaning depends on the frequency of
use of the oven. When cleaning is necessary to
place a door at the base of the chimney.
All these measures are crucial for the proper
conservation of the oven and their failure to
comply could result in damage not covered by
the warranty!
