GENERAL CLEANING

Clean and inspect the appliance regularly, especially in periods of

heavy use. Regular cleaning and maintenance will help give many

years of safe use.

Allow appliance to cool thoroughly to avoid risk of burns.

Clean regularly, according to level of use.

Remove the ash completely.

Check internal components for damage - grates, bricks, baffles

- and for obvious build up of soot, ash or debris above the flue

baffle(s) (these can be found in the upper part of the firebox). Use

a torch if necessary.

If there are any signs of a build up of debris above the flue baffle(s)

either:

— Arrange for the chimney to be swept.

— Remove the baffles and clear the debris.

To refresh painted nishes a touch up spray is available.

Contact your Stovax retailer quoting the serial number found on

the appliance data badge.

Do not use aerosol sprays near an operating appliance.

CLEANING GLASS

Keep the glass clean with correct use of the Airwash system and

good quality fuel.

Sometimes additional cleaning may be required.

Before undertaking this operation allow appliance to cool fully. Do

not clean hot glass.

On appliances with printed glass do not use cleaning

agents that have a high alkaline or acidic content, these are

aggressive cleaning agents designed to be used with heavily

stained clear glass. On printed glass surfaces, use Stovax

Glass Cleaner (Stovax No.4103) which is better formulated for

this application.

Before applying a cleaning agent remove any dust and loose soot

with a damp cloth.

Use an appropriate glass cleaner. Apply the cleaning fluid to a

cloth before rubbing onto the glass.

Apply carefully and do not apply excessively. Try to prevent any

run off which could soak into the rope seals around the edge of the

glass.

Soot can also contain acidic particles that can cause corrosive

damage to printed glass.

Remove dirt with a moist cloth and buff dry.

Some types of wood can cause a white residue to form on the

glass.

If this occurs it should be cleaned off at least once a week

during periods of heavy usage.

If the liquid cleaning agents recommended do not remove

this residue Stovax offer a dry cleaning pad which will help

remove heavy stains.

Before relighting the appliance ensure the glass is fully dried.

If the rope seal has absorbed excess cleaning agent it is advisable

to replace the rope as soon as possible to preserve the printed

finish of the glass.

CHIMNEY SWEEPING

To maintain safe and efficient use of the appliance, the chimney/

flue must be inspected and swept at least once a year by a

qualified chimney sweep.

If the appliance is used continuously throughout the year, or it is

used to burn wood, more frequent sweeping is recommended.

The best time to have the chimney swept is at the start of the

heating season.

The chimney, any connecting flue pipe and the appliance flue

ways, if incorporated, must be regularly cleaned.

Ensure adequate access for cleaning where it is not possible to

sweep through the chimney.

If the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire

it must be swept a second time within a month of regular use after

installation.

CO ALARMS

Building regulations require that whenever a new or replacement

fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass appliance is installed in a dwelling

a carbon monoxide alarm, complying with BS EN50291, must be

fitted in the same room as the appliance.

HETAS recommend the unit is permanently fixed in accordance

with the manufacturer's installation instructions or with the guidance

contained in Approved Document J where no other information is

available.

Provision of an alarm must not be considered a substitute for either

installing the appliance correctly or ensuring regular servicing and

maintenance of the appliance and chimney system.

SEASONAL USE

Clean and service the appliance if not used during the warmer

months, as detailed in the Maintenance and Servicing section.

Set the air controls to 50% to keep the appliance ventilated and

stop the build-up of any moisture inside.

Before re-lighting the appliance:

— Remove the baffles.

— Clear any debris that may have accumulated.

— Check the flue is clear of any blockages.
