SECTION VI: CARE AND MAINTENANCE

A.Catalytic Maintenance

Note – Your unit will have a 3” thick, 25-cell combustor (manufactured by Applied Ceramics), or it will have a 1” thick, “ceramic foam” type combustor (manufactured by Clear Skies). The following instructions apply to both types, unless otherwise specified.

1.To reach the combustor, first take out the flame impingement plate by removing the four (4) 3/8” brass nuts (they take a 9/16” wrench). Once the nuts are removed the plate should drop from the four bolts. This will allow you to see the bottom of your catalytic combustor.

2.For 25-cell Applied Ceramics combustor: If the combustor is plugged up you will see black soot within the cells on the bottom side of the ceramic piece. This can usually be removed by brushing the combustor with a soft bristled brush. You can also run a pipe stem cleaner through each cell for removal of any internal build-up. This type cleaning can be done without removing the combustor from the stove.

3.For 1” thick Clear Skies combustor: Follow the instructions provided by Clear Skies pertaining to the cleaning of their combustor.

4.The flame impingement plate (Part #IP-18PC) is held in the unit as described previously. This can be cleaned with a stiff bristled brush.

5.The combustor collar (Part #CA-1710) is also held in place by four (4) 3/8” brass nuts (they take a 9/16” wrench). The flame impingement plate must be removed before the combustor collar. Once the second set of nuts is removed the collar will come out with the catalytic combustor seated in it. Reverse this procedure to replace the collar and flame impingement plate.

6.The catalytic combustor (Part #AC-6C3) is guaranteed by the manufacturers. A separate warranty card will be in the manual for this part and should be mailed back to the combustor manufacturer. Both combustors are equivalent, and in the event there is a problem with this item, Customer Service should be contacted at

1-800-245-6489.

B.Gaskets

Each unit comes with a gasket around the door, which should be replaced every two years. To replace the door gasket (Part # AC-DGKC), the old gasket should first be removed entirely. This may require you to scrape the old gasket and cement from the channel before adding new cement and 3/4” rope gasket. After attaching the new gasket, close the door and allow 24 hours for the cement to harden.

If you are replacing the window gasket (Part #AC-GGK), the gasket already has adhesive on one side. Remove the paper on the adhesive side and place the gasket around the outside edge of the glass. The easiest way to do this is to form a “U” with the gasket and place this around the outer perimeter of the glass.

The door gasket as well as the window gasket can be ordered from your local dealer or from our factory.
