Glass must be cleaned periodically. During start-up it is normal for condensation to form on the inside of the glass causing lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. During initial start-up a slight film may form on the glass due to paint curing. The glass should be cleaned several times with a non-ammonia, nonabrasive household cleaner and warm water after the first two weeks of operation. Thereafter, clean the glass two or three times during each heating season, depending on the usage and circumstances present.
