6.Ash Removal from Firebox (Cont’d)

c.See Cleaning Ash Drawer for instructions to remove the ash drawer.

d.This ash is deposited in the same ash drawer as the firepot debris. The ash drawer should be emptied every time you clean the firebox. Remember to place the ash and debris into a metal or non-combustible container.

7.Disposal of Ashes

Frequency: As needed

By: Homeowner

Task:

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.

WARNING

Heat exchanger cleaning rods may be warm to the touch. For safety purposes wear gloves.

Do not pull heat exchanger cleaning rods while appliance is operating.

8.Cleaning Heat Exchanger Chambers

Frequency: Weekly or as needed

By: Homeowner

Task:

The amount of ash buildup in the firepot will be a good guide to determine how often you should clean the heat exchangers.

a.Allow the appliance to completely cool down before pulling the cleaning rods. Turn the thermostat on and then immediately off to start the exhaust blower on its cycle time. It will pull fly ash out the exhaust instead of into the room. Lift the stove top up from the front to access the 2 cleaning rods. See Figure 29.2.

b.Locate the 2 rods along bottom edge of the heat exchanger tubes. Lift the stove top up by the front. Both rods are bent at a 90° angle for easy handling.

c.To clean, pull the rods straight out unit it stops, approximately 20 inches (508mm). Slide the rods OUT and IN a couple of times.

9.Cleaning Beneath Heat Exchanger

Frequency: Monthly or after burning 1 ton of fuel

By: Homeowner

Task:

A more thorough cleaning is needed to remove the excess ash that is left behind from the use of the cleaning rods for the heat exchanger tubes. Open the right side curtain and the right pedestal access door. Remove 4 screws and remove the exhaust clean-out plate and thoroughly vacuum out the excess ash.

NOTE: There are heavy duty vacuum cleaners specifiically designed for solid fuel appliance cleaning.
