Lennox Hearth II-T C INS Routine Maintenance, Routine Cleaning, Proper Disposal of Ashes

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Inspect your stove or insert at minimum frequency stated until you establish a minimum frequency required for your installation (frequency will vary depending upon fuel BTU value / ash content, usage, and misc. installation vari- ables).

ROUTINE CLEANING

Stove will need to be shut off and cooled enough to han- dle before routine cleaning is performed. All ash removal and cleaning should be done while stove is cold. Always disconnect power before doing any routine cleaning.

Proper Disposal of Ashes

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fit- ting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible 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 otherwise locally dis- persed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

The following areas need to be inspected during Routine Cleaning:

•UltraGrateTM

•Ash Pan

•Ash Trap and Baffles

•Heat Exchange Tubes

•Exhaust Passages and Vent Pipe

UltraGrateTM

The UltraGrateTM should be inspected periodically to assure that the air holes have not become clogged with ash or clinkers. The UltraGrateTM can easily be cleaned with the grate scraper tool, or it can be removed for cleaning. It is very important to monitor the ash build up under the Ultra- GrateTM, as excessive amounts of ash will block combus- tion air from entering the UltraGrateTM, causing pellets to pile-up in the UltraGrateTM. The ash build-up under the Ul- traGrateTM is easily dumped into the ash pan by pulling out the ash slide weekly as shown below. The UltraGrateTM cleaning procedure is the same for all models.

ASH PAN (Advantage II-T C FS)

The ash pan will have to be emptied periodically, de- pending on the amount of fuel consumed. To access fol- low steps one through four:

1.Open the glass door, then, using the ash pan / grate scraper tool, lift the UltraGrateTM out and sweep the top ash into the pan below.

2.Remove the ash pan cover located below the door by pulling forward until magnets release.

3.Pull the ash pan door knob and swing open.

4.Remove the ash pan using the ash pan / grate scraper tool. (See picture below)

5.Place ashes into a non-combustible container. When finished, close the glass door and slide the ash pan back into the stove and close the ash pan door. Re- install ash pan trim piece.
