FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS INDICATED CAN
RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NEVER
CLEAN WHEN HOT.
NOTE: Inspect burn pot periodically to see that holes have not become
plugged, if so, clean thoroughly.
ASH REMOVAL
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The
closed container or ashes should be placed on a noncombustible surface
or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials pending final
disposal. If ashes are disposed of by soil burial or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders
have thoroughly cooled.
ASH DISPOSAL
Remove ashes periodically as they fill the firebox. To remove ashes:
a. Make sure fire is out and firebox is cool.
b. Clean heat exchanger tubes (see “CLEANING” and Figure 25).
c. Remove the burnpots inner section by grasping it and pulling straight
up (see Figure 26).
d. Empty ashes from the inner section and scrape with cleaning tool;
make sure holes are not plugged.
e. Vacuum to remove ashes from the burn chamber interior and the
burnpot shell.
WARNING: Make sure ashes are cool to the touch
before using a vacuum. See “VACUUM USE”.
f. Dispose of ashes properly. (See “ASH REMOVAL” above)
a. Replace inner section into burnpot; make sure it is level and pushed
all the way back down and that the igniter hole is to the rear when it is
reinstalled (see Figure 26).
b. Make sure the burnpot is level and pushed all the way in, if the collar
on the burnpot attached to the fresh air tube is not pushed back to
meet the firebox wall, the Hot Rod will not work properly.
VACUUM USE
If a vacuum is used to clean your unit, we suggest using a vacuum
designed for ashes. (We recommend LoveLess Ash Vac, 1-800-568-3949
Ext. #27) Some regular vacuums and shop vacs leak ash into the room.
Your vacuum or shop vac may have a special filter or bag available to
eliminate this leakage.
CLEANING
a. Heat Exchange Tubes – Your Breckwell stove is designed with a
built-in heat exchange tube cleaner. This should be used every two or
three days to remove accumulated ash on the tubes, which reduces
heat transfer on the P22. Insert the handle end (with hole) of the
cleaning tool onto the cleaning rod (refer to figure 25). The cleaner
rod is located in the grill above the stove door. Move the cleaner rod
back and forth several times to clean the heat exchanger tubes. Be
sure to leave tube cleaner at the rear of the stove.
b. Interior Chambers – Four ash doors and two upper baffles in the
firebox in the P22 can be removed for periodic cleaning (Figure 27).
These doors allow access to the chamber surrounding the firebox.
NOTE: When removing the upper baffles do not remove the screws;
just loosen them enough to allow the baffles to be removed.
Periodically, you must vacuum ashes from this chamber. In some
cases you will need to remove creosote, which can accumulate
rapidly under certain conditions. A small wire brush can be used. It is
important to remove this creosote because it is highly combustible.
INSPECT BEHIND THESE CLEANING PLATES AT LEAST ONCE
PER TON OF PELLETS BURNED UNTIL YOU ARE FAMILIAR
WITH HOW ASHES AND CREOSOTE ACCUMULATE WITH YOUR
OPERATING PRACTICES. Use the small wire brush to also clean
the inside of the chamber walls, above the access doors.
