M. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUES SOLUTIONS
1. Metallic noise 1. Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as
it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound pro-
duced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not
affect the operation or longevity of your appliance.
. Ash build-up on glass . This is normal. Clean the glass.
. Glass has turned dirty . Excessive build up of ash. The lower burn settings will
produce more ash, the higher burn settings produce
less. The more it burns on low the more frequent clean-
ing of the glass is required.
. Fire has tall ames with black tails and is lazy .
The ame height adjustment needs to be reduced or
the repot needs cleaning. Heat exchanger or exhaust
blower needs cleaning.
5. Excessive smokey start-up 5. Either the repot is dirty or there is too much fuel at
start-up and not enough air.
6.
Large ame at start-up 6. This is normal. Flame will settle down once the re is
established. Some smoke is normal.
7. Mechanical Noise 7. The oor of the repot in the auto-clean system may
make some noise as it scrapes the ash into the ash
pan.
