PROVIDENCE INSERT PELLET STOVE
28
Risk of electrical shock. Disconnect power cord before
servicing. Do not operate with covers removed. Always
turn your heater off and let it cool before cleaning.
MAINTENANCE
The PROVIDENCE requires routine maintenance
for maximum performance and prolonged life of
parts and components, and it is mandatory for
warranty to remain in effect.
Soot and Fly Ash – Formation and Need for
Removal: The products of combustion will
contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash will
collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict
the flow of flue gasses. Incomplete combustion
—
such as that which occurs during start-up, shut
down or incorrect operation of the room
heater
— will lead to some soot formation which
will collect in the exhaust venting system. The
exhaust venting system should be inspected at
least once every year.
The following procedures should be performed
regularly and may require more frequent attention if
a low-quality pellet is used.
Daily Maintenance
1. Firepot-
a. scrape firepot every 1-2 days
depending on usage and type of
pellet
b. Ash and clinker build up in the
firepot will affect the quality of burn
and can cause ignition issues. More
frequent cleaning may be necessary
with poor quality or high ash fuel.
Weekly Maintenance
1. Ash removal from firebox- approximately
every week
a. Clean and vacuum ash build up
weekly or as needed. See Figures 13
& 14.
b. With door open, push clean button
and allow fan to run 30-45 seconds
to blow excess ash out flue.
2. Glass cleaning- approximately every 1-2
weeks
a. Clean glass with stove glass cleaner
as needed when fire view is
obstructed.
3. Heat exchanger- approximately every 2
weeks
a. Remove 2 side baffle plates for
access to internal heat exchanger
fins. Use brush to remove ash build
up. Vacuum heat exchanger and
below exhaust channels. See Figure
13.
b. With door open, push clean button
and allow fan to run 30-45 seconds
to blow excess ash out flue.
4. Empty ash pan- approximately every 2-4
weeks
a. Empty build up ash build up in pan
as needed. This is necessary every 2-
4 weeks but can be more based on
the type of pellet used. See Figure
14.
b. Cooled ash must be dumped into an
airtight metal container. Dispose of
ash properly to avoid a fire.
5. Air wash system- approximately every 2-4
weeks
a. Remove air wash and clean any ash
build up.
