Page | 33 DAILY MAINTENANCE Ash Removal and Disposal Press the “Off” button and allow the stove to complete the shut-down cycle and cool completely. Grasp the heat exchange cleaning rod lo cated at the middle of the decorative room air grill and repeatedly pull it in and out until ash stops falling from the tubes into the firebox.
Page | 34 DAILY MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Burnpot Along with removing ashes from the stove, cleaning the burnpot is the other essential part of daily maintenance that will keep the stove operating at its peak. Pellets contain varying amounts of impur ities and fusible m aterial that will accumulate in the burnpot over time.
Page | 35 BIWEEKLY MAINTENANCE Important Notes As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF,” has completed the Shut-Down cycl e, and is completely cool BEFORE beginning. Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out and EVEN after the Shut-Down cycle is complet e.
Page | 36 BIWEEKLY MAINTENANCE Baffle Removal Using the integral tube cleaner, as mentioned in the Daily Maintenance section, helps to keep the heat exch anger tubes free from fly ash; however, fly ash will still accumulate on the baffl e shelf and in other non-visible areas.
Page | 37 MONTHLY MAINTENANCE Important Notes As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF,” has completed the Shut-Down cycl e, and is completely cool BEFORE beginning. Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out and EVEN after the Shut-Down cycle is complet e.
Page | 38 MONTHLY MAINTENANCE Exhaust Chamber Cleaning The exhaust chamber of the stove wa s intentionally designed as an ash accumulation area. Allowing ash to accumu lat e here prevents excess ash build-up in the combustion blower and the venting system.
Page | 39 MONTHLY MAINTENANCE Venting Pipe Cleaning Low spots and direction changes in th e venting system (such as tee’s and elbows) are areas for potential fly-ash accumulation. INSPECT these areas diligently to keep the venting sy stem in safe operating condition.
Page | 40 YEARLY MAINTENANCE Important Notes As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF,” has completed the Shut-Down cycl e, and is completely cool BEFORE beginning. Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out and EVEN after the Shut-Down cycle is complet e.
Page | 41 YEARLY MAINTENANCE Exhaust Blower Cleaning Although the exhaust blower and blower housing were designed to minimize ash build-up, some fly-ash will still accumulate there throughout the burning season. The amount and type of ash will depend on th e type of pellets and venting system, but generally this accumulation will be mild.
Page | 42 Loosen and remove the 5/16” screw, on the top of the exhaust blower output connection, which holds the therma l sensor to the exhaust blower. Loosen the five (5) 5/16” self-drilling screws which hold the exhaust blower to the exhaust blower tube.
Page | 43 YEARLY MAINTENANCE Convection Blower Cleaning As always, be certain the stove is cool and unplugged before servicing any components within the unit. Since th e convection blower does not handle any by-products of combustion, it does not require serious clean ing like the exhaust blower.
Page | 44 YEARLY MAINTENANCE Checking Gaskets An airtight seal at the door openings a nd hopper lid opening is crucial to proper stove performance. Any air leaks at these areas can not only cause a dirty, inefficient burn but can also pose a serious safety threat.
