Formation and Need For Removal:
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture
to form creosote.
The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool
chimney ue of a newly-started or a slow-burning re. As
a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ue lining.
When ignited, this creosote creates an extremely hot re
which may damage the chimney or even destroy the house.
The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected
once every 2 months during the heating season to
determine if a creosote or soot buildup has occurred. If
creosote or soot has accumulated, it should be removed to
reduce the risk of a chimney re.
2. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: Prior to first burn and then as desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean all the ngerprints and oils from plated surfaces
BEFORE ring the appliance for the rst time. If not
cleaned properly before lighting your rst re, the oils can
cause permanent markings on the plating.
After the plating is cured, the oils will not affect the nish
and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean as needed.
3. Disposal of Ashes
• Frequency:
When ash is within 1-3/4 in. (44mm) of
rebox lip
• By: Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible oor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
4. Glass Cleaning
• Frequency: As desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive
cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack. If the
deposits on the glass are not very heavy, normal glass
cleaners work well. Heavier deposits may be removed by
using a damp cloth dipped in wood ashes or by using a
commercially available oven cleaner.
After using an oven cleaner, it is advisable to remove any
residue with a glass cleaner or soap and water. Oven
cleaner left on during the next ring can permanently stain
the glass and damage the nish on metal surfaces.
A portion of the combustion air entering the rebox is
deected down over the inside of the door glass. This
air ow “washes” the glass, helping to keep smoke from
adhering to its surface.
When operated at a low burn rate, less air will be owing
over the glass and the smokey, relatively cool condition of a
low re will cause the glass to become coated.
Operating the appliance with the Burn Rate Air Control and
Start-Up Air Control all the way open for 30-45 minutes
should remove the built up coating.
