Proper care of your
VULCAN “V” Series
pellet shop and home heater is required for peak, sustained performance.
The need for and frequency of cleaning depends on the amount of pellets burned, pellet quality, length of time
since last cleaning and the quality of the fire. While becoming acquainted with your new stove and the types of
local pellets, inspect your BURN GRATE, BURN POT, HEAT TUBES, ASH PIT, and WINDOW daily and clean
until a pattern of cleaning requirement is determined. As heating demands increase the need for stove and
exhaust system cleaning and ash removal will increase.

HEAT TUBES:

WINDOW CLEANING:
[COLD STOVE ONLY as hot glass may cause serious burns] To enjoy a
clear view of the fire you should clean your window as needed with a soft cloth or paper towel. You may use
a glass cleaner to remove heavy build up on the window. HOME TIP: Dampen a piece of newsprint with
water, dip this into the fly ash, then rub down the glass. This works like a charm. Do not use abrasive
chemical cleaners
DO NOT OPERATE STOVE WITH BROKEN GLASS AS LEAKAGE OF FLUE GASES MAY RESULT.
