GLASS - CLEANING, REMOVAL, AND REPLACEMENT OF BROKEN DOOR GLASS
Cleaning - We recommend using a high quality glass cleaner. Should a buildup of creosote or carbon accumulate, you
may wish to use 000 steel wool and water to clean the glass. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT perform the cleaning
while the glass is HOT. ,
In the event you need to replace the glass, Do not attempt to operate the unit with broken glass. Replacement glass may
be purchased from your U.S. Stove Pellet Burning Room Heater Dealer. If glass is broken, follow these removal procedures:
Replacement glass must be 0.197” thick tempered ceramic glass with a working service temperature of 1400
deg. F.
1. Remove the four (4) screws and glass retainers.
2. While wearing leather gloves (or any other gloves suitable for handling broken glass), carefully remove
any loose pieces of glass from the door frame. Dispose of all broken glass properly. ONLY high temperature
ceramic glass of the correct size and thickness may be used. DO NOT substitute alternative materials for
the glass. Contact your authorized dealer to obtain this glass.
3. Re-install the new glass by re-attaching the retainers and screws, be careful not to over tighten the
screws for this could damage the glass.
DO NOT abuse the door glass by striking, slamming, or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass
removed, cracked, or broken.
FALL START UP
Prior to starting the rst re of the heating season, check the outside area around the exhaust and air intake systems for
obstructions. Clean and remove any y ash from the exhaust venting system. Clean any screens on the exhaust system
and on the outside air intake pipe. Turn all of the controls on and make sure that they are working properly. This is also a
good time to give the entire stove a good cleaning throughout.
SPRING SHUTDOWN
After the last burn in the spring, remove any remaining pellets from the hopper and the auger feed system. Scoop out
the pellets and then run the auger until the hopper is empty and pellets stop owing (this can be done by pressing the
“ON” button with the viewing door open). Vacuum out the hopper. Thoroughly clean the burn pot, and rebox. It may be
desirable to spray the inside of the cleaned hopper with an aerosol silicone spray if your stove is in a high humidity area.
The exhaust system should be thoroughly cleaned.
