7. VENTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
REGULARLY EXAMINE THE VENTING
SYSTEM, THE JOINTS, AND THE SEALING
TRIMS TO ENSURE THAT THE SMOKE
AND THE COMBUSTION GASES ARE NOT
LEAKING.
Chimney cleaning can be a difcult and dangerous
job. If you don’t have experience cleaning chimneys,
you might want to hire a professional chimney sweep
to clean and inspect the system for the rst time. After
having seen the cleaning process, you can decide if
it is a job you would like to take on.
The most effective method of sweeping the vent
system is to use a 3" or 4" brush, depending on
your installation. Start at the top of the vent system
and brush down, so that the ash, soot and creosote
residues come off the inner surface and fall into
the bottom of the vent system, where they can be
removed easily.
The vent system must be kept in good condition and
well maintained.
CAUTION
IF A SIGNIFICANT LAYER OF
CREOSOTE HAS ACCUMULATED (3 MM
/ 1/8" OR MORE), IT MUST BE REMOVED
IMMEDIATELY TO ELIMINATE THE RISK
OF A CHIMNEY FIRE.
FACING A CHIMNEY FIRE
1. Evacuate family members and animals from the
building, then call the re department.
2. Turn off the unit. Do not unplug it!
3. If possible, use a chemical re extinguisher,
baking soda or sand to control the re. Do not
use water, as this may cause hazardous vapor
explosions.
4. Do not use the stove until the vent system and
the stove have been inspected by a qualied
chimney sweeper or re inspector.
7.1 SOOT AND FLY ASHES
The combustion products contain small particles
of y ash. Fly ash can accumulate especially in
horizontal sections of exhaust pipe and restrict the
ow of combustion gases. Incomplete combustion,
