CLEANING THE BOILEr
Cleaning the boiler begins by switching off the fan. It must be done periodically and thoroughly every 3 to 5 days, since the
ash that has accumulated in the fuel chamber, as well as the condensations and the tar reduce significantly the average
life expectancy and capacity of the boiler, and also isolate the surface that conducts heat.
When the ash is in bigger quantities, there is no space for burning the fuel completely, which can cause damage to the
boiler.
Fuel chamber
After operation of the boiler, a layer of tar is formed in the fuel chamber, which must be removed - this cover isolates the
heat and acts corrosively.
The tar removal is done only on the metal walls. It is gathered in the middle of the bottom, where it will burn from the high
temperature.
Burning chamber
The ash in the burning chamber that lies on the bottom over the ceramic fireplace must be cleaned with the rake
always when the thickness of the layer exceeds 5 cm.
Heat transfer unit
The two “winged” M8 screws have to be loosened and the top lid is removed.
After that, the two wave-shaped bars are taken out and the tar and soot are scrubbed away from the metal walls with the
wire brush.
The accumulated soot and tar are taken out through the lower rear lid.
Air chamber
Once each month the fan and the round lid on top of it are removed.
Through the lid entrance we poke and clean the metal surfaces and through the fan hole the leftovers are taken away.
CAUTION!
•
The regular and thorough cleaning is vital for securing a lasting capacity and long life of the boiler.
•
If the cleaning has not been properly carried out, damage to the boiler can occur, in which case the warranty is void.
