 YEARLY MAINTENANCE
Important Notes
 As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF,” has completed
the Shut‐Down cycle, and is completely cool BEFORE beginning.
 Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out
and EVEN after the Shut‐Down cycle is complete. Always use extreme caution when
handling potentially hot stove parts, even if you think they should be cold.
 Yearly (or end of season) maintenance should include the steps listed in this section AS
WELL AS the steps listed in the “Daily Maintenance” and “Monthly Maintenance”
sections of this manual.
 Yearly maintenance should be performed at the end of the burning season. Leaving ash
and other build‐up in the stove during the non‐heating months can lead to premature
metal degradation in the stove and venting system. Using extra attention to detail and
being certain to be very thorough in the end of season cleaning will help increase the
operating life of the stove and venting system.

Caution – Shock Hazard
Press the “Off” button and let the appliance completely cool BEFORE
unplugging the appliance and beginning any maintenance or component
replacement.
Risk of shock if appliance is not unplugged before service.
Soot and Fly Ash: Formation and Need for Removal
The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash
will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
Incomplete combustion, such as that which occurs during startup, shutdown or
incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which
will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should
be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary.
