• Be careful not to overfire the appliance by leaving
the door open too long after the initial start-up.
A thermometer on the chimney connector and/or
appliance top helps.
• Replace worn, dried out (inflexible) gaskets.
• Have chimney regularly cleaned.
IN CASE OF A CHIMNEY FIRE:
• Have a well understood plan for evacuation and
a place outside for everyone to meet. Prepare to
evacuate to ensure everyone's safety.
• Close air control on appliance.
• Call local fire department. Have a fire extinguisher
handy. Contact local authorities for further infor-
mation on how to handle a chimney fire.
• After the chimney fire is out, clean and inspect
the chimney or chimney liner for stress and cracks
prior to lighting another fire. Also check combusti-
bles around the chimney and the roof.

7.4 CHIMNEY CLEANING

Both the chimney and the appliance must be inspected
and cleaned at least once a year.
For serious wood burners, chimney cleaning must be
done as needed to avoid chimney fires; the venting
systems for controlled combustion appliances may
need cleaning as often as once a month. These rates,
however, depend on the burning habits of the individ-
ual operating the appliance. For example, it is possible
to clog a solid fuel appliance chimney in a few days if
slow, smoldering fires are burned and the chimney is
cold. NOTE: Appliances burned consistently with-
out hot fires may result in significant creosote
accumulations in the chimney.
Certain items and considerations are important in
chimney cleaning:
• Proper tools should be used, including a brush
specifically designed for chimney cleaning.
• The chimney connector and dampers as well as the
chimney should be cleaned.
• The appliance's firebox and baffle system should
be cleaned if needed.
• The chimney should be inspected and repairs made
if needed, preferably by a qualified chimney sweep
or mason.
