FIREPLACE FURNACE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

SYSTEM

The majority of fires and accidents occurring with solid fuel-wood burning appliances are a result of improper maintenance of a fireplace. Visual inspections of the fireplace furnace, the chimney, the chimney connectors and the chimney cap on a semi-annual basis will reduce the probability of a fire or accident.

A visual inspection should be made on monthly basis. All dampers and moving parts should move freely without sticking. All metal parts should be checked for corrosion or air leaks. Any weak or damaged metal should be replaced with equal or greater thickness metal. The inside of the chimney should be checked regularly for the buildup of any creosote. If the inside of the chimney has a flat black appearance it should be considered relatively clean. If the inside of the chimney has a shiny black appearance this would indicate that creosote is building up and the chimney needs to be properly cleaned.

All factory-built chimney and chimney connectors should be professionally cleaned at least once each year. Certified chimney sweeps advertise in the local yellow pages and should be contacted for professional cleaning services. The efficiency of a fireplace is directly impacted by the maintenance performed. Failure to keep the fireplace clean will limit the fireplace furnace heat output.

BLOWERS

The two (2) blower assemblies each have an electrical motor that has one oil hole. These motors will require annual lubrication. High temperature blower motor systems are lubricated at the factory and should require no further lubrication during the first year; however, at higher inlet temperatures and with time, increased bearing life can be achieved by annually lubricating the motors with 10 to 20 drops of Anderol Number 465 high temperature synthetic lubricant. DO NOT USE petroleum-based oil, as bearing failure will result. Lubrication can be accomplished by removing the each grille from the blower box face. WARNING: Electrical power must be removed from the fireplace furnace to avoid shock hazard when lubricating the fans. Performing this simple annual maintenance on motors will ensure smoother, quieter, and longer life from each of these electrical devices.

OVER FIRING

Important: If any part of the fireplace furnace metal frame glows red, it is being over fired. Over firing is dangerous. It not only reduces the life expectancy of the product, it can also overheat the immediate area and increases the potential for creating dangerous conditions that can ignite surrounding areas. Close the draft control to reduce a fire by limiting the amount of airflow through the firebox.

In the event of a power failure the blower motors will not operate. This will limit the amount of heat that is being distributed through the duct system and will cause the fireplace furnace to burn hotter. In case of a power outage, it is suggested that a medium to small fire be maintained in the firebox. DO NOT OVERFIRE. Do not expect to heat the house to a desired temperature during a power outage.
