CLEANING THE UNIT A. The unit should be lightly sanded with fine sandpaper or steel wool, then repainted or touched up with high temperature black paint. B. If the unit is located in a moist or damp location, check thoroughly for signs of condensation during times when the unit is not in use. C. When the heating season is over, the unit can be cleaned out completely with a wire brush or cloth to help eliminate ash and burned wood smell. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE/ SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CHIMNEY A. The chimney should be cleaned as necessary to remove creosote, soot, leaves, birds nests, etc. CREOSOTE-FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
