Maintaining Your Appliance

29

Failure to properly maintain and inspect your appliance may reduce the performance and life of the appliance, void your warranty, and create a fire hazard.

Daily Maintenance (while stove is in use)

Remove Ash (if necessary)

Ash removal is n o t required once it builds up. 1/2" to 1" of ash may be desirable because it slows the burn rate. Generally, remove ash once it has built up over 1". Follow the directions below to remove ash.

1 Let the stove cool completely (at least two hours after the last coal has extinguished).

2Place a cloth or cardboard protector over the hearth to catch ash and protect against scratching.

3 Open the doors and scoop the ash into a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The

ASHES

closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground,

 

away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.

 

Improperly disposed ashes lead to fires. Hot ashes placed in cardboard boxes, dumped in back yards, or stored in garages, are recipes for disaster.

Wood-burning stoves are inherently dirty. During cleaning have a vacuum ready to catch spilled ash (make sure ash is entirely extinguished).

There are vacuum cleaners specifically made to remove ash (even if the ash is warm). Contact your dealer for details.

Clean the Glass (if necessary)

This appliance has an airwash to keep the glass clean. However, burning un-seasoned wood or burning on lower burn rates leads to dirtier glass (especially on the sides). Clean the glass by following the directions below.

Allow the stove to fully cool. Apply glass cleaner or soapy water to the inside of the glass. Wipe with newspaper or a paper towel.

For Stubborn Creosote:

Dip newspaper or a paper towel in cool ashes and wipe it on the glass. The ash acts as a light abrasive.

The glass will develop a very slight haze over time. This is normal and will not affect viewing of the fire.
