Monthly Maintenance (while appliance is in use) – Continued

Clean the Combustion Brick

Use a suitable vacuum cleaner (AshVac™ or equivalent) to vacuum the combustion brick (see illustration
below). Hold the vacuum up against the holes in the combustion brick to pull ash from within the brick
and combustor. This helps remove any built-up flyash inside the combustor and improve effeciency.

Yearly Maintenance

Make sure the appliance has fully cooled prior to conducting service.

Touch Up Paint

Included with the owner's pack of this appliance is a can of Stove-Brite®
paint. To touch up nicks or dulled paint, apply the paint while the appliance is
cool. Sand rusted or damaged areas before preparation (use 120 grit
sandpaper). Clean and dry the area to prepare the surface. Wait at least one
hour before starting the appliance. The touched up area will appear darker
than the surrounding paint until it cures from heat. Curing will give off some
fumes while curing – open windows to ventilate.

Cleaning the Air Duct and Blower (if applicable)

Use a vacuum to clean the air ducts (channels). This prevents dust from burning and creating odors.

The optional blower should be vacuumed every year to remove any buildup of dust, lint, etc.

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any

buildup on the screens of the blower.
