The tabs go into the slots on the baffle and the latch flips downward to seal at the angle. Lift the latch and lift the baffle off of the tabs for removal. Ashes from the heat exchange tubes can be cleaned from this area. Sliding the firebrick from one side to the other will allow more space for baffle removal.

Cleaning

To maintain maximum heating efficiency, this cleaning should be performed weekly during the burn season. The frequency of this cleaning will be directly related to the quality and quantity of fuel being consumed. Keep in mind that the cleaner the heat exchanger tubes are kept, the higher the heat transfer efficiency will be.

Due to the ease of restarting, it is recommended that the boiler be turned OFF for an hour before cleaning.

Start by removing the two firebox baffles as shown above, then reinstall the ash pan. Next, remove the top heat exchanger cover to expose the heat exchanger tubes. Vacuum this upper exhaust chamber. Some of the tubes contain a spiral baffle which you can use as a cleaning device. Simply work the spiral up and down, approximately 6 inches, to scrape the inside surface of the heat exchange tube(s). The removed debris will fall to the ash pan and on the angled chamber of the firebox. Once all tubes are cleaned, remove the ash pan and clean the remainder from the angles.

With a wisp brush, paint brush or a soot vac, clean the firebox walls and any fly ash that has accumulated in the burnpot, or burnpot opening. At this time you can scrape and clean the burnpot and fines cleanout area.

Inspect all sealing gaskets to ensure a proper seal and re-install all components removed for cleaning.

Note:The firebox baffles(#1-10-232052)are considered to be a consumable item. Check for signs of warping or damage, and replace if necessary.

CAUTION: For your safety, do not vacuum hot ashes or embers. Some portions will remain hot, long after shut-down. Wear gloves to protect skin from burns.

CAUTION: Cleaning of the heat exchangers, flue pipe, chimney, and combustion blower fan, is especially important at the end of the heating season to minimize corrosion during the summer months, caused by accumulated ash.
