Maintenance
Like any piece of equipment in daily use, your stove needs maintenance.
The stove should only be cleaned when cold. Use a dry cloth for cleaning the exterior of the
stove.
Clean the interior regularly by removing ashes, soot and tar from the combustion chamber. The
smoke deflector plate should be removed for cleaning, as the reverse side will be covered in dirt
and soot. Finally check that the smoke pathway through the flue pipe and chimney is completely
clear. You should also inspect the rope seals in the door and ash pan for signs of wear. Replace
them if they no longer seal properly. Also, remember to lubricate the door hinges as required.
Glass pane
The glass pane should be cleaned using Varde Glas Cleaner, which is available at all DIY centres
selling
Varde Ovne stoves
.
Empty the Ash pan regularly. It can be emptied into your dustbin, as long as you make sure it
does not contain any hot embers. If in doubt about how to clean your stove, contact the dealer
where you bought your stove, or your chimney sweeper.
It is especially important to check the stove and the chimney for blockages after a long period of
non-use.
The enamelled surface of the stove may wear down in certain places if the stove is overheat-
ed . Worn surfaces can, however, be repaired with a special Senotherm
®
spray paint, available
from your local dealer.
The plates in the combustion chamber are vermiculite plates and will eventually become
worn, as will the smoke deflector plate. Accidental breakage of a plate, for instance by hitting it
hard with a piece of wood, will not affect the quality of the combustion. You do not need to re-
place the plate until the gap is 5 mm wide.
Only use original parts from Varde Ovne A/S
The door is equipped with a spring, which pulls the gate closed. This is a legal requirement in
many countries. The spring is fitted to the hinged side of the door but can be removed if you
prefer the door not to be spring-loaded.
Do not make any unauthorised changes to the stove.
All external parts of the stove become hot during use, and you should therefore exer-
cise due caution.
IMPORTANT!!
Chimney fires
Should your chimney catch fire, cut off the air supply to the stove’s combustion chamber and
contact the emergency service. (The majority of fires die out after the oxygen supply is cut off.)
You should subsequently contact your chimney sweeper, who will check your stove and chimney
for damage
