7.0 Maintenance

7.1 Cleaning and soot removal
Soot deposits may build up on the internal surfaces of the
fi replace during use. Soot is an insulator and will therefore
reduce the fi replace's heat output. If soot deposits accumulate
when using the product, they can easily be removed by using
a suitable detargent.
In order to prevent a layer of water and tar from forming in the
fi replace, you should regularly allow the fi re to burn hot in order
to remove the layer. Your product should be cleaned internally
once a year to ensure the best heating eff ect. It is a good idea
to do this when cleaning the chimney and fl ue pipes.
7.2 Sweeping the fl ue pipe to the
chimney
Flue pipes must be swept through the fl ue pipe sweeping hatch
or through the door opening. The side burn plates, baffl e and
exhaust defl ector must be removed fi rst (see Chapter 6.2).
Sweeping the heat exchanger.
To clean the heat exchanger, remove the side burn plates,
baffl e and exhaust defl ector (see Chapter 6.2). Put on a
protection-glove and clean all surfaceswith a small brush
(bottle cleaner is recomended).
7.3 Inspection of the fi replace
Jøtul recommends that you carefully inspect your fi replace
yourself after it has been swept/cleaned. Check all visible
surfaces for cracks. Also check that all joints are sealed and
that the gaskets are in the correct position. Any gaskets showing
signs of wear or deformation must be replaced.
Thoroughly clean the gasket grooves, apply ceramic glue
(available from your local Jøtul dealer) and press the gasket
well into place. The joint will dry quickly.
7.4 Exterior maintenance
Painted products may change colour after they have been used
for several years. The surface should be cleaned and brushed
free of any loose particles before new paint is applied.
