Cleaning and Maintaining your Wood-Burning Stove
Warning:
Cleaning and maintenance of your wood-burning stove may only be performed when it is
cool.
External Cleaning
The outside of your stove can be dusted as needed with a soft cloth or dust brush.
Cleaning the Glass Door
Your WIKING wood-burning stove is equipped with a pane-ush system, which reduces the
build-up of soot on the glass. If soot somehow accumulates on the pane, it can be cleaned by
wiping the glass with a moist paper towel dipped in ash. Afterwards, dry with a clean paper
towel. You should also ensure that air gaps in the door frame are free of ash and soot particles.
Also ensure that the seals on the stove are soft and fully intact; if they are not, ”false” air can
enter the stove, which makes it more difcult to control combustion and can in turn cause
overheating or soot accumulation. Faulty or worn seals should therefore be replaced and can
be purchased at your local wood-burning stove dealer.
Emptying the Ash Pan
Important:
Be aware that embers in the ash can remain hot for up to 24 hours after the re in the stove
has gone out!
The ash pan is most easily emptied by pulling a waste bag over
the pan, turning the pan upside down, and then carefully
pulling it up and out of the bag again.
Cleaning the Combustion Chamber
In order to extend the service lifetime of the wood-burning stove, it should be thoroughly
serviced once a year. First remove ash and soot from the combustion chamber. Carefully
remove the vermiculite plates, one after the other in the following order:
1. Base plate (2 pieces)
2. Front plate
3. Right side plate
4. Smoke deector (top plate)
5. Left side plate
6. Rear plate
After cleaning, carefully reinsert the vermiculite plates,
in the opposite order starting with the rear plate.
Over time, the combustion chamber’s effective yet
porous insulation can become worn and damaged.
A crack in the back plate can cause secondary air
to become incorrectly distributed in the combustion
chamber, and it should therefore be replaced. Cracks in the other plates will not affect the ef-
ciency of the wood-burning stove. They should, however, be replaced when worn down to half
of their original thickness.
