•  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,” 
“Biweekly 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.

Press the “Off” button and let the appliance completely cool BEFORE 

unplugging the appliance and beginning any maintenance or component 

replacement. 

The products of combustion will contain small particles off 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.
