HSB Boiler Stove
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
It is important that your stove is regularly
serviced in accordance with these
instructions. This should be carried out at
least annually by a qualified person and
should consist of the following:
-
With the appliance unlit and cold remove the
FEDS lower section. Inspect all gaskets on
doors, glass etc, and re-order any items that
may need replacing from your Arada dealer.
With a wire brush clean inside the appliance.
Ensure the air admittance holes for the
thermostatically controlled under draught are
clear. Check that the air wash aperture above
the guide lip is clean and clear of debris. Clean
any debris from around the inside of the door
taking care not to damage the glass or door
rope seal.
Sweep the chimney and confirm that it is sound.
Examine all joints in the flue pipe etc, and re-
seal if necessary. Reassemble and leave with
the air wash at the mid point to allow free flow of
air through the appliance to help prevent mois-
ture and condensation from building up inside
the stove and the chimney.
CHIMNEY SWEEPING
Sweeping should be carried out with the correct
size brush and rods to suit the chimney size and
type. As with all appliances regular sweeping of
the flue is essential to avoid the danger of a
blockage and escape of poisonous fumes.
Access for cleaning should be incorporated into
the chimney (e.g. soot door, access through the
register plate etc.)
Any existing chimney should be swept prior to
installation of the stove, and then again a
second time
within one month
of regular use
after installation to establish the frequency of
sweeping required. This should be done by a
competent person such as a
NACS
chimney
engineer who will provide a Certificate of
Chimney Sweeping.
Sweep the whole flue way, including the outlet
at least twice a year per burning season.
It is important that the flue ways, flue pipe and
chimney be cleaned prior to lighting the fire
after a prolonged shut-down period.
For removal of the FEDS for sweeping through,
follow the procedure detailed on page 11.
DOOR GLASS
The door glass should remain clear during
normal daytime burning. However burning at a low
rate, or overnight may result in the glass becoming
somewhat blackened. To avoid this operate the
appliance at a faster rate.
Alternatively when the stove is cold open the door
and clean the inside face of the glass with a damp
cloth or with glass cleaner. (Available from a stove
stockist).
OUTER FINISH
The outside of the stove is finished in a durable
high temperature paint. It is best cleaned by
brushing down with a soft brush. Do not allow
water to remain on the surface when cold or rust
may occur.
The high temperature paint finish should not
require attention for some time, depending on use.
The hotter the fire is burned the sooner repainting
will be necessary. Aerosol tins of paint are
available for complete refurbishing.
Before repainting make sure the stove is out and
cold
Remove door glass.
Lightly wire brush and rub with wire wool the
body of the appliance to remove any loose paint
powder.
Mask or remove items such as brass work.
Adjacent brickwork, mantelpiece, hearth etc.,
should be carefully masked for quite a distance
around the appliance (this precaution is to
prevent the discolouration of the surrounding
brickwork, wallpaper etc).
Re-spray in a well ventilated area, avoid
breathing the vapour. Refer to the safety
instructions on the paint can.
When paint is dry refit door glass and any other
parts previously removed.
Leave to dry for 8 hours and refit the door glass
etc.
Burn slowly for the first 4 hours, then build up
heat gradually to cure the paint.
Note:
Use only genuine Arada Ltd spray paint as
some paints interact and spoil the stove finish
and invalidate the guarantee.
