SECTION VI: CARE AND MAINTENANCE
A. Catalytic Maintenance
Note – Your unit will have a 3” thick, 25-cell combustor (manufactured by Applied Ceramics),
or it will have a 1” thick, “ceramic foam” type combustor (manufactured by Clear
Skies). The following instructions apply to both types, unless otherwise specified.
1. To reach the combustor, first take out the flame impingement plate by removing
the four (4) 3/8” brass nuts (they take a 9/16” wrench). Once the nuts are
removed the plate should drop from the four bolts. This will allow you to see the
bottom of your catalytic combustor.
2. For 25-cell Applied Ceramics combustor: If the combustor is plugged up you will
see black soot within the cells on the bottom side of the ceramic piece. This can
usually be removed by brushing the combustor with a soft bristled brush. You
can also run a pipe stem cleaner through each cell for removal of any internal
build-up. This type cleaning can be done without removing the combustor from
the stove.
3. For 1” thick Clear Skies combustor: Follow the instructions provided by Clear
Skies pertaining to the cleaning of their combustor.
4. The flame impingement plate (Part #IP-18PC) is held in the unit as described
previously. This can be cleaned with a stiff bristled brush.
5. The combustor collar (Part #CA-1710) is also held in place by four (4) 3/8” brass
nuts (they take a 9/16” wrench). The flame impingement plate must be removed
before the combustor collar. Once the second set of nuts is removed the collar
will come out with the catalytic combustor seated in it. Reverse this procedure to
replace the collar and flame impingement plate.
6. The catalytic combustor (Part #AC-6C3) is guaranteed by the manufacturers. A
separate warranty card will be in the manual for this part and should be mailed
back to the combustor manufacturer. Both combustors are equivalent, and in the
event there is a problem with this item, Customer Service should be contacted at
1-800-245-6489.
B. Gaskets
Each unit comes with a gasket around the door, which should be replaced every
two years. To replace the door gasket (Part # AC-DGKC), the old gasket should first
be removed entirely. This may require you to scrape the old gasket and cement from
the channel before adding new cement and 3/4” rope gasket. After attaching the new
gasket, close the door and allow 24 hours for the cement to harden.
If you are replacing the window gasket (Part #AC-GGK), the gasket already has
adhesive on one side. Remove the paper on the adhesive side and place the gasket
around the outside edge of the glass. The easiest way to do this is to form a “U” with
the gasket and place this around the outer perimeter of the glass.
The door gasket as well as the window gasket can be ordered from your local
dealer or from our factory.
