For advice on the correction of persistent flue problems
consult your supplier/installer for more detail.
7.
ASH REMOVAL
Depending on the type of wood burnt and frequency, the
ashes will need removing every 2 to 6 weeks.
Retaining at least 10mm of ash helps protect the firebox
base, and can make it easier to start the fire next time.
Excess ashes should be removed when necessary, placed
in a non-combustible container with a tightly fitting lid
and moved outdoors immediately to a location clear of
combustible materials.
8.
FLUE/CHIMNEY FIRE
If a flue/chimney fire occurs:
●
Shut air control fully to smother the fire
●
Do not use the appliance after a flue fire until an
accredited installer has assessed the cause and
any resultant damage.
9.
CLEANING PAINTWORK AND GLASS
The appliance, when cool, can be cleaned with a damp
cloth.
Over the years, the black paint will fade and can be
touched up with Stove Bright metallic black paint.
To clean the glass, we recommend using a household
window cleaner or general purpose cleaner with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaner or scourer pads.
10. CLEANING THE FLUE
Check inside of flue prior to each season for any build-up
of creosote (wood tar). To do this:
1.
First remove the baffle (refer to “2. Replacement of
Baffle” under Maintenance & Servicing section).
2.
Using a small mirror and torch hold the mirror on
an angle below the flue with the torch shining at it
and look for black creosote build-up. A fine black
powdery layer is normal, but if built up layers of
creosote can be seen, then the flue needs cleaning.
3.
Refit the baffle if no cleaning is required.
To clean the flue:
1.
A flue cleaning brush can be purchased from most
wood heater retail outlets or large hardware stores.
2.
The objective is to pull the brush down through the
flue.
3.
With the baffle removed, tie a rope to one end of the
brush, and drop the rope from the top (outside on
top of the roof) down the flue.
4.
Grab the end of the rope inside the firebox and pull
the brush through.
5.
Check the inside of the flue with the mirror and
torch. Repeat if necessary.
6.
Once clean, remove any excess creosote from the
firebox and replace the baffle.
Check flue integrity by checking that the 900mm flue
sections have not separated at the joins.
Alternatively, get a flue cleaning service to do the job for
you (it’s a dirty job).
