Monthly Maintenance (while appliance is in use)

Make sure the appliance has fully cooled prior to conducting service.

Door and Glass Inspection

The door must form an air-tight seal to the firebox for the stove to work correctly. Inspect the door gasket to make sure it forms an air-tight seal to the firebox.

The door can be lifted off the hinges if extensive repairs are conducted.

High-Temperature anti-sieze may be used on the door hinges to eliminate squeaks.

If the glass is damaged, replace it - see “Replacement Parts” for details.

Use wood stove gasket cement to re-adhere loose gasket.

Severely frayed or thread-bare gasket should be replaced.

The door latch should pull the door against the face of the stove (but not so tight as to not allow full

handle rotation).

If the latch requires adjustment, follow the directions below.

Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow- burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney and chimney connector should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.

If you are not certain of creosote inspection, contact your dealer or local chimney sweep for a full inspection. Excess creosote buildup may cause a chimney fire, that may result in property damage, injury, or death.

790, 745 specifications

Avalon Stoves has made a name for itself in the realm of high-efficiency wood stoves, and the Avalon 745 and Avalon 790 models stand out as exceptional choices for homeowners looking to heat their spaces sustainably and effectively. These units are designed with a focus on performance, aesthetics, and user-friendliness, making them ideal for both new installations and replacements.

One of the main features of the Avalon 745 is its unique design that accommodates larger logs while maintaining an efficient burn. With a firebox capacity of 3.4 cubic feet, this stove can hold logs up to 18 inches in length, allowing for longer burn times and reduced wood handling. The 790 model, on the other hand, offers an even larger capacity, making it suited for heating larger spaces or for users who prefer fewer reloads. Both models feature a top-loading design that simplifies the process of adding fuel.

In terms of technology, Avalon stoves employ a range of advanced features to optimize heating output. One key aspect is the secondary combustion system, which enhances efficiency by allowing the smoke and gases released during burning to combust again. This not only maximizes heat output but also minimizes emissions, making the stove a more environmentally friendly option. Additionally, the air wash system helps keep the glass clean, providing an unobstructed view of the fire while reducing the frequency of maintenance.

The construction quality of Avalon stoves is noteworthy. Built with heavy-duty steel and lined with firebrick, these stoves are designed for durability and heat retention. The high-efficiency design ensures that the heat generated is distributed evenly throughout the room, providing consistent warmth even during the coldest months. With an EPA certification, both the 745 and 790 models meet stringent emission standards, making them one of the cleaner-burning options available.

Aesthetic appeal is also a significant consideration in the design of Avalon stoves. Both models feature a sleek, contemporary look that can seamlessly integrate into a variety of home decors. Customers can choose from a range of finishes and door styles to match their personal preferences and existing interiors.

In conclusion, the Avalon 745 and 790 stoves highlight the brand's commitment to efficiency, quality, and style. With their advanced technologies, robust construction, and elegant designs, these stoves not only provide warmth but also enhance the ambiance of any living space. For homeowners seeking a reliable and attractive heating solution, Avalon stoves are a commendable choice.
