13.CHIMNEY SWEEPING
13.1To maintain safe and efficient use of the appliance, the chimney/flue must be inspected and swept at least once a year by a qualified chimney sweep**.
If the appliance is used continuously throughout the year, or it is used to burn wood or smokeless fuel, more frequent sweeping is recommended.
The best time to have the chimney swept is at the start of the heating season.
The above applies even if burning smokeless fuels.
13.2The chimney, any connecting flue pipe and the appliance flue ways, if incorporated, must be regularly cleaned.
13.3Ensure adequate access for cleaning where it is not possible to sweep through the chimney.
13.4If the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire it must be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation.
