DAILY MAINTENANCE

Important Notes

•As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF” and has completed the Shut-Down cycle BEFORE starting.

•Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out and EVEN after the Shut-Down cycle is complete. Always use extreme caution when handling potentially hot stove parts, even if you think they should be cold.

•Ashes should only be removed when the stove has been shutdown and been allowed to cool thoroughly. Hot embers can remain under ashes long after the fire has gone out, so always be extra careful when handling any ashes from this and any stove.

•Store ashes in a metal container with a tight fitting lid, and only place this container on a non-combustible surface.

•Different pellets will generate varying amounts of ash and burnpot deposits. Carefully monitor the ash build up in the stove when first operating the unit, as well as whenever a different brand of pellets is burned.

•While the amount of ash generated by this unit is not excessive compared to a traditional log-burning woodstove, keeping the unit clean and free of ash is ESSENTIAL for peak performance and maximum efficiency. Ash build-up hampers airflow, reduces efficiency, and can cause a smoke back.

•England’s Stove Works ® is not responsible for any damages incurred due to a poorly maintained and/or dirty stove. This pellet stove is a highly efficient machine and as such requires sufficient maintenance to keep it operating at its peak.

Disposal of Ashes – Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible 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 other locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.
