  The cataly  c combustor elements are held 

fi

 rmly in the Combustor Housing with gaskets that expand 

when exposed to heat.  Unless the combustors are worn out or severely damaged there is no need to remove them.  The 
gaskets lose 

fl

 exibility a  er they have expanded and are not reusable.  It is not normally necessary to clean the bo  om of the 

cataly  c combustors.  Vacuum or brush out any ash residue in the bo  om of the Combustor Housing.  Resist inser  ng any-
thing into the individual holes in the honeycomb.  Even so   tools can damage or remove the catalyst coa  ng.  If a few holes 
are plugged with spent ash that resists vacuuming, clear the holes very carefully with a pipe cleaner as necessary.

  Never

 insert 

hard tools, probes, or brushes into the holes in the cataly  c combustor.  Do not blow out the combustors with compressed 
air.  A powerful stream of air can remove the catalyst coa  ng.  In addi  on, most air compressors are oil lubricated and create 
condensa  on in the air tank.  Air from a shop air compressor can contaminate the catalyst with oil and/or water.  Once the 
cataly  c combustors are cleaned sa  sfactorily of excess ash and soot, replace the Combustor Housing in the 

fi

 rebox.

Cataly  c Combustor Housing Loca  on

The Combustor Housing is held in place with four (4) nuts and studs.       
Two of the nuts are visible on the front edge of the housing; the other 
two (2) nuts are in the same rela  ve posi  ons on the back of the 
housing, but are not readily visible.  The Combustor Housing is fairly 
large (4” W x 20” L X 2½” H) and quite heavy.  Have a helper support 
the housing, or cut temporary supports to length from short pieces of 
2 x 4, 4 x 4, or similar material.  The supports should 

fi

 t loosely under 

the housing.  Do not wedge the housing   ghtly.
A ratchet, a 9/16" socket, and an extension are recommended for re-
moving the nuts.  Loosen the four (4) nuts evenly, but do not remove 
them un  l the housing is supported.  With the Combustor Housing 
supported, remove the four (4) nuts.  Do not a  empt to remove the 
studs.  Lower the housing and remove it from the Firebox.  Be aware 
that the Combustor Housing may contain ashes, soot, and creosote.

 Handle the Combustor Housing carefully.  Remove the housing to a convenient work surface that has been pro-

tected with plas  c shee  ng, newspaper, or the like.  Con  nue to wear a good dust mask and gloves.  The top surfaces of the 
cataly  c combustors are now exposed in the housing.  Do not   p the housing up-side-down.  Do not a  empt to remove the 
combustors from the housing at this stage.  Make a careful visual inspec  on of the cataly  c combustors.  Ash and soot residue 
on the combustors is normal and it can be gently removed with a so   paint brush and/or a vacuum cleaner with a so   brush 
a  achment.  With the loose ash removed, con  nue to inspect the cataly  c combustor elements.  If only normal ash and soot 
accumula  on are observed, 

fi

 nish cleaning the combustors following the instruc  ons below, and replace the Cataly  c Hous-

ing in the 

fi

 rebox.  If any condi  on other than a normal accumula  on of ash residue is observed, refer to the chart below, and 

addi  onal informa  on on 

Page 21

, to help iden  fy and correct the cause of the abnormal condi  on.

: 

Two cataly  c combustor elements are 

fi

   ed into individual cavi  es in the top 

of the Combustor Housing.  The Combustor Housing is located just inside the Loading Door, secured to the top of the Firebox.  
The housing assembly is heavy and it is likely to be dusty and/or dirty.  Wear a good dust mask and gloves.  Handle the Com-
bustor Housing with care.  Rough handling or impact can easily damage the cataly  c combustor elements.

The Bypass Damper is closed 
before the combustors are 
ac  vated fully.

Always monitor the temperature of the combustors to ensure 
that the temperature con  nues to rise a  er the bypass is closed.  
Do not try to scrape o

build a ho  er than normal

:

  Cataly  c combustors should be inspected and cleaned at least annually, when-

ever the chimney is cleaned, and/or whenever decreased performance is suspected.  Whether you perform rou  ne mainte-
nance yourself or rely on a cer  

fi

  ciency from your wood heater.
