Periodic Maintenance
CAUTION: Periodic maintenance should only be done while the Furnace is shut off and
cold.
1. Ashpan. Empty the ash pan when it appears full (approximately once a week). The
frequency of cleaning the ash pan will depend on the quality and amount of fuel being
used. Carefully check to make sure the ash pan door is tightly closed after each
opening.
2. Burnpot and Slide-Out Bottom. Clean burn grate holes whenever needed. Remove
the Burnpot and use a small metal object (Nail, Drill Bit, etc) to clean out plugged
holes. (See Figure 20 below)
The area shown above is located inside the
Furnace Firebox and must be accessed
through the Firebox door.
