MAINTENANCE

Your wood pellet stove is a high efciency stove however, still requires that maintenance be performed on a regular

basis. Maintenance is a vital key in maintaining your stove’s efciency, operation, and longevity. It is important to per-

form a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order to insure that no parts have been damaged, in

which case repairs must be performed immediately. Inspect and clean the chimney and connector pipe periodically for

creosote buildup or obstructions.

be cleaned

Secondary Air Ports

Cleaning the Secondary Air Ports regularly will help

keep your heater burning clean and efciently. Re-

move any ash or creosote build-up from the ports as

frequently as needed. A simple brush with a small

chimney sweep broom once a day will help reduce or

prevent any large deposits from bonding to this surface

which could cause premature deterioration of the re-

box. Most Creosote formations here can be removed

Heat Exchanger Tubes/Fiber Board

Cleaning the Heat Exchanger Tubes on a regular basis

will help your heater continue to produce substantial

heat output for the life of your appliance. Keeping any

build-up to a minimum will allow for more heat con-

ductivity thru the tubes. Using a chimney sweep, brush

the tubes as frequently as needed being careful not to

damage the Fiber Board resting above the tubes. Al-

ways keep a check on the condition of the ber boards

to ensure there is no damage or extreme deterioration.

These will diminish over time and should be replaced

along with the gasketing of the appliance. We recom-

mend replacing once a year to ensure proper sealing

and efcient operation of the appliance.

Fuel Flowing Surface

This area of the fuel system may become coated with

creosote under certain conditions of operation and

should be removed on a regular basis. The creosote

formation leaves a sticky surface and sometimes pre-

vents the fuel from owing properly into the burnpot

area causing the re to cease. Scrapping with a 1-1/2"

putting knife or an aggressive chimney brush are the

cleaning procedures recommended and should be

done as needed or once every couple days depending

on ring conditions. Removing the burnpot will aid in a

easier cleaning method.
