11.Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal in Exhaust Venting System.

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

By: Qualified Service Technician/Homeowner

Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been unplugged and the exhaust blower is off.

The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.

At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there is a shutdown or incorrect operation of the appliance it will lead to some soot formation. This will collect in the exhaust venting system.

The venting (chimney) system may need to be cleaned at least once a year or more often depending upon the qual- ity of your fuel or if there is a lot of horizontal pipe sections. Ash will build up more quickly in the horizontal sections.
