INSPECT AND CLEAN VENTING - Fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the
flow of flue gases. Check the clean out tees and elbows in the system periodically to determine the
required schedule of cleaning. To remove dust from the vent pipe, lightly tap on the pipe to dislodge
loose ash. Open the bottom of the tee to dump the ash, then use an ash vacuum to remove as
much ash as possible from the pipe. 3” and 4” chimney brushes are available for cleaning. If the
exhaust system has a screen on it, frequently clean the screen. A plugged screen will shut down
the stove or cause the fire to burn poorly or die out.
GOLD/BRASS TRIM CLEANING - Use a damp cloth to clean your door and trim. DO NOT USE
ANY ABRASIVE CLEANSERS AS YOU WILL REMOVE OR SCRATCH THE PLATING!
FAN MOTORS - Clean the intake on the CONVECTION FAN (circulation) as well as the holes on the
motors of both COMBUSTION and CONVECTION FANS annually. Disassemble the COMBUSTION FAN
and clean out the internal fan blades as part of your fall season startup.
