INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEATING / MAINTENANCE
23
Maintaining your wood-burning stove
Apart from regular chimney sweeping, your wood-burning stove
does not require any regular maintenance. However, we recommend
servicing at least once every two years
Coated surfaces
Clean your wood-burning stove by dusting with a dry, lint-free cloth.
If the topcoat is damaged, you can purchase a repair spray from your
authorised Scan dealer. As slight differences in colour are possible,
spray a larger area to achieve a natural transition for best results.
For best results, apply repair spray when the wood-burning stove is
hand-hot.
Cleaning the glass
Our wood-burning stoves are designed to prevent serious soot build
up on the glass. The best way to achieve this is to make sure you have
a sufficient combustion air supply. It is also important to use dry
wood, and have a correctly dimensioned chimney.
Even if you follow all of our instructions, a slight film of soot can build
up on the glass. You can easily remove this build up by cleaning with
a dry cloth and glass cleaner. Please note that the glass cleaner is not
to get into contact with the gaskets, as this can discolour the glass
permanently. Please be careful when cleaning the glass with glass
cleaner.
The detergent must not come into contact with the painted surfaces
as these can be damaged.
Combustion chamber lining
Slight cracks can appear in the combustion chamber lining due to
moisture, or to the heating/cooling process. These cracks have no
influence on the heating performance or lifetime of your stove.
However, if the lining starts to crumble, you must replace it. The com-
bustion chamber lining is not covered by the warranty.
Seals
All wood-burning stoves have seals made of ceramic material fitted to
the stove, the doors, and/or the glass. These seals are subject to wear
and tear, and must be replaced when necessary.
Chimney sweeping and cleaning your
wood-burning stove
Follow national and local chimney sweeping regulations. We
recommend having the wood-burning stove cleaned regularly by the
chimney sweep.
Before starting to clean your wood-burning stove, and sweep the flue
pipe, we recommend first removing the baffle plates.
Use only original replacement parts for maintenance and repairs of
your stove.
Note! Make sure the wood-burning stove is cold before starting
maintenance or repair work.
Removing the baffle plates
See page 24, “Service”.
Checking the stove
Scan A/S recommends that you check your stove thoroughly after
sweeping/cleaning. Check all visible surfaces for cracks. Check that
all joints are tight and that the seals sit correctly. Worn or deformed
seals should be replaced.
Servicing
We recommend that the stove should have a comprehensive servicing
at least once every two years. Servicing should include the following:
• Lubricate hinges using copper grease
• Check gaskets. Replace any that are broken or weak.
• Check combustion chamber door and riddling grate
• Check combustion chamber lining and baffle plates.
The stove must be serviced by a qualified fitter. Use only orignal
spare parts.
Firewood fuel value
The fuel value is different for different types of wood. In other words,
you need to use more wood of certain types to achieve the same hea-
ting performance. This Instruction Manual assumes that you will be
using beech, which has a very high fuel value, and is also a wood that
is easy to procure. If you use oak or beech wood fuel, note that these
wood types have a greater fuel value than, say, birch. Make sure you
use less fuel to avoid damage to the wood-burning stove.
