BIWEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Exhaust Cover Removal & Cleaning
Fly ash will accumulate behind the exhaust cover and in other non-visible
areas.
The firebox exhaust cover is a one-piece design, held in place with two (2)
5/16” screws.
Remove the exhaust cover plate by first removing the two (2) 5/16” screws,
then lifting the entire exhaust cover from the stove.
o Remember, always use extreme caution when handling potentially hot
stove parts, even if you think they should be cold.
When the exhaust cover is out of the stove, the area where fly-ash
accumulates on the firebox shelf will be clearly seen.
The use of a utility (or ash) vacuum such as our Part Number AC-SV is
highly recommended.
Exhaust Chamber Cleaning
The exhaust chamber of the stove (seen when the cover is removed) was
intentionally designed as an ash accumulation area. Allowing ash to accumulate
here prevents excess ash build-up in the combustion blower and the venting
system.
Instructions
BEFORE vacuuming the chamber out, observe the type and quantity of ash
build-up. The ash deposited in the exhaust chamber should be light, fluffy,
grey or white in color, and should be no higher than half way up the clean-
out port.
o If the ash is dark brown or black, it is generally evidence of
incomplete pellet combustion.
o Do NOT allow the ash to accumulate very high in this area;
significant ash accumulation in this area can “choke” the combustion
blower and cause poor stove performance.
