the throat plate so that it sits on top of either the right or left side
brick. Raise the opposite side and slide so that the throat plate is
central and supported by the side bricks. Slide back so that the throat
plate rests neatly on the top of the back bricks. Refit the remaining
side plate.
Where the chimney previously served an open fire, it is possible that
the higher flue gas temperature from a stove may loosen soot
deposits with the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore
recommended that the chimney be swept a second time within a
month of regular use after installation.
The chimney should be swept at least twice a year. Where the top
outlet or vertical rear flue connector is used it will generally be
possible to sweep the chimney through the appliance.
First remove the fuel retainer and the throat plate. Then sweep the
chimney ensuring that soot is removed from all horizontal surfaces
after sweeping.
In situations where it is not possible to sweep through the appliance
the installer will have provided alternative means, such as a soot door.
After sweeping the chimney the appliance flue outlet and the flue
pipe connecting the stove to the chimney must be cleaned with a flue
brush.
After clearing any soot from within the stove, replace the throat plate
(see Fig. 6) and the fuel retainer.
CHIMNEY SWEEPING
Different types of sweep’s brushes are available to suit different
flueways. For prefabricated insulated chimneys the manufacturers
instructions with regard to sweeping should be consulted.
deposits on the glass may be removed with a proprietary stove glass
cleaner or ceramic hob cleaner. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads
as these can scratch the surface which will weaken the glass and cause
premature failure
After long periods
where the fire has been out of use, the chimney and appliance
flueways should be cleaned before lighting.
It is important that the throat plate and all the stove flueways are kept
clean in order to prevent potentially dangerous fume emission. They
should be cleaned at least monthly, and more frequently if necessary.
It is necessary to let the fire out to carry out these operations.
To remove the throat plate, first remove the fuel retainer ( item ‘e’
page 5 ) and one side plate to allow enough room so that the throat
plate clears the sides of the fire box when removed.
Slide the throat plate forwards so that it clears the back brick, then
slide it either right or left so that the opposite side clears the top of
the remaining side brick and can be gently lowered. Any sooty
deposits should then be swept from the throat plate and into the fire.
To return the throat plate to its correct position- At an angle, insert
When Not in Use
If the fire is going to be out of use for a long period (for instance in
the summer) then to prevent condensation, and hence corrosion, the
air control should be left fully open and the fire door left ajar. It Is
also advisable to sweep the chimney and clean out the fire. Spraying
the inside of the door and firebox with a light oil, such as WD40, will
also help to keep all internal parts working well.
Door Seals
For the fire to operate correctly it is important that the door seals
are in good condition. Check that they do not become worn or
frayed and replace them when necessary.
Servicing
It is recommended that the fire is serviced once a year to keep it in
first class working order. After cleaning out the firebox thoroughly,
check that all internal parts are in good working order, replacing any
parts that are beginning to show signs of wear. Check that the door
seals are in good condition and that the door seals correctly. A
servicing guide is available on request. Repairs or modifications may
only be carried out by the Manufacturer or their approved agents.
Use only genuine Charnwood replacement parts.
