Charcoal Oven Installation and Operation Manual
SaFety ConSiderationS
REMOvAL OF CREOSOTE AND SOOT
As with all commercial cooking equipment exhaust systems, a regular inspection and cleaning schedule is needed to
prevent the possibility of a hood or duct fire. The frequency of inspection and cleaning will depend on hours of use.
When wood or charcoal is burned slowly, it produces tar or creosote. Creosote residue can accumulate in the duct.
When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The duct serving this oven should be inspected at least twice a
month during the first two months of operation, to establish rate of creosote buildup and necessary cleaning schedule.
If creosote or soot has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a flue fire.
The oven flue and exhaust system will require inspection and cleaning. The exhaust system should be inspected
and cleaned per the manufacturer's and or local code official's recommendations.
