Routine Cleaning and Maintenance

The following list of components should be inspected and maintained routinely to ensure that the

appliance is operating at its optimum and giving you excellent heat value. The appliance, flue gas

BURNER POT AND LINER (2-3 days)
This is the ‘pot’ where the pellets are burned. Every two to three days (when the unit is cold), remove

the burn-pot liner from the stove. Using a metal scrapper, remove material that has accumulated or

is clogging the liner’s holes. To remove the burn pot and burn pot liner, open the door using the door

handle provided (located on the right-hand side of the stove). Swing the door open. Lift the liner from

the burn pot. Lift the burn pot from the firebox by gently lifting up the front of the burn pot, then sliding

the assembly from the air intake tube and the ignitor.
Then dispose of the scrapped ashes from the liner and from inside the burn-pot. Place the burn-pot back

into the stove, making sure that the pipes are properly inserted into the burn pot. Place the liner back

into the burn-pot, making sure that the ignitor hole in the liner is aligned with the ignitor tube. Pushing

the liner up against the ignitor tube.
If, after long periods of burning, the fire continually builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a

build up of clinkers, this is an indication that the pellet fuel quality is

poor or the stove may need cleaning. Check the stove for ash build

up (clean if required) and adjust the slider / damper to produce the

proper clean combustion.

HEAT EXCHANGER TUBES (2-3 days)
A handle is located in the center of the stove just above the door

(shown in Figure 9). Put gloves on and pull it up and down a few

times (ONLY WHEN THE UNIT IS COLD) in order to clean away

any fly ash that may have collected on the heat exchanger tubes.

As different types of pellets produce different amounts of ash,

cleaning of the tubes should be done on a regular basis to enable

the unit to run efficiently.
