3.Cleaning Firepot with Cleaning Rod & Firepot Scraper

•Frequency: Daily or more often as needed

•By: Homeowner

a.The appliance must be in complete shutdown and cool and the exhaust blower off. If you are just cleaning the firepot, there is no need to unplug the appliance.

b.Pull firepot cleaning rod OUT a couple of times to help shake debris loose. See Figure 30.1 on page 30. If rod is hard to pull, it may be necessary to use your firepot clean-out tool to chip away material that has built up on the bottom plate of the firepot and to push out any clinkers. Larger clinkers may have to be removed from the top of the firepot. Corn clinkers can be especially difficult to break up.

c.The firepot floor plate must be fully closed when finished. See Figure 24.1 on page 24.

WARNING

Fire Risk

•NEVER pull firepot cleaning rod or cleaning slide plates out when appliance is operating.

•The cleaning slide plates must be fully CLOSED when appliance is operating.

•.Hot pellets may fall into ashpan and start a fire or mis-starts due to lack of vacuum.

4.Ash Removal from Firebox

•Frequency: Weekly or more frequently depending on ash build-up.

•By: Homeowner

a.Allow the appliance to completely cool down. There must not be any hot ashes in the firebox during cleaning. 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.

b.Frequent cleaning of the ash in the firebox will help slow down the build-up of ash in the exhaust blower and vent system.

c.Open door. There are 2 cleaning slide plates to the left and right of the firepot with finger holes. Pull both slide plates out and open the glass door and sweep the remaining ash from the firebox into the 2 open holes. A paint brush works well for this. Close slide plates.

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

See Disposal of Ashes.
