CLEANING & MAINTENANCE TIPS

FIREPOT:

THE FIREPOT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED AS NEEDED. THE BUILD-UP OF CLINKER

MATERIAL WILL DEPEND ON THE QUALITY OF THE FUEL BEING USED. IN SOME

CASES, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO CLEAN THE FIREPOT ON A DAILY BASIS.

FIREPOT CLEANING INVOLVES SIMPLY PULLING THE CLEANOUT ROD ON THE FRONT

OF THE STOVE. IF THE ROD IS HARD TO PULL, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO USE THE

SCRAPER OR SCREW DRIVER TO CHIP AWAY THE CARBON MATERIAL THAT HAS BUILT

UP ON THE BOTTOM PLATE OF THE FIREPOT. ONCE THE DEBRIS IS CHIPPED AWAY,

THE ROD WILL BE EASY TO PULL.

HEAT EXCHANGER:

THE HEAT EXCHANGERS CAN BE CLEANED BY PULLING THE 2 RODS LOCATED

UNDER THE TOP LID OF THE STOVE. THE RODS SHOULD BE PULLED EACH TIME THE

FIREPOT IS CLEANED. A MORE THOROUGH CLEANING WILL BE NEEDED AT LEAST

ONCE A MONTH. THIS WILL INCLUDE REMOVING THE BAFFLE PLATES IN THE FIREBOX

AND ACCESSING THE CLEAN-OUT PLATE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE STOVE.

THIS IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE EXCESS ASH THAT IS LEFT BEHIND FROM THE

USE OF THE PULL RODS FOR THE HEAT EXCHANGER TUBES.

VENT / CHIMNEY SYSTEM:

THIS NEEDS TO BE CLEANED AND INSPECTED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. IT MAY BE

NECESSARY TO PERFORM MORE FREQUENT CLEANING IF THERE IS A LOT OF HORI-

ZONTAL PIPE SECTIONS. ASH WILL BUILD UP MORE QUICKLY IN THE HORIZONTAL

SECTIONS.

FIREBOX ASH:

THE FIREBOX ASH SHOULD BE REMOVED AT THE SAME TIME THAT THE FIREPOT

IS CLEANED. FREQUENT CLEANING OF THE ASH IN THE FIREBOX WILL HELP SLOW

DOWN THE BUILD-UP OF ASH IN THE EXHAUST BLOWER AND VENT SYSTEM. REMEM-

BER TO DEPOSIT ASHES IN A NONCOMBUSTIBLE CONTAINER.

BLOWERS:

THE BLOWERS MAY ONLY NEED TO BE CLEANED ONCE A YEAR. IF THE USE OF

THE STOVE IS HEAVY, THEN IT MAY NEED TO BE DONE MORE FREQUENTLY. IF THE

BLOWER IS GETTING NOISY, THEN THE FAN BLADES WILL NEED TO BE CLEANED.
