4 Cleaning and Maintenance
4.1 Chimney Sweeping
Ensure your stove and chimney is swept at least once a year by a professional accredited chimney sweep. Use
the HETAS find a chimney sweep tool.

The top baffle must also be cleaned once a year at least to remove any build-up of ash or residue from the
chimney.
4.2 Combustion chamber
The fireproof tiles in the combustion chamber eventually wear out and should be replaced when the cracks are
more than 0.5 cm. The durability of the tiles depends on how often and how intensively the stove is used.
Spare parts are available from MI-Fires directly or from your local Mi-Fires dealer.
4.3 Glass
Wet wood, unsatisfactory chimney draft, and wrong use of the stove can leave soot stains on the glass pane.
They can easily be removed using a damp cloth that you dip in cold ash and rub on the sooty glass. Special
cleaning agents are also available to remove soot from glass, e.g. the Aduro Easy Clean pad. The pad neither
scratch nor damage the glass and is for multiple usages. Water or other cleaning agents are not necessary.
It is common maintenance to tighten the glass fittings shortly after the stove has been installed as well as to
check if the gaskets are properly placed.
4.4 Gaskets
With time, gaskets around glass and door will wear. We recommend that you inspect them regularly. If
leakages appear, they must be replaced.
4.5 Ash
Empty the ash bed before it gets completely full. Always leave a layer of ashes in the stove because it insulates
and makes it easier to light a fire.
4.6 Cleaning the stove
The stove’s surface is treated with a heat
-resistant Senotherm® paint, which will stay at its best just by being
vacuumed with a small, soft mouthpiece or dusted with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use spirit or other solvents, as
they will remove the paint.
MI-Fire stoves are painted with a heat-resistant paint that can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees. If
the surface of the stove gets scratched or worn, it can easily be renewed using this type of paint. The paint is
available in black metallic from your local dealer.
