Clean flue gas collecting channel
The flue gas channel should be cleaned twice a year or after approximately
700kg of pellets. The flue gas duct is located in the lower region of the
combustion chamber.
Open the firebox door.
Remove the lower front panel by simply lifting.
Remove the cover plate by opening the hexagon screws.
Suck out the combustion residues from the flue gas collection channel.
Install the removed parts in reverse order.
Note
If the seals of the cleaning cover are not properly sealed, it is possible that
the heater gets "wrong air", causing incomplete combustion in the grate and
then an accumulation of pellets
Clean flue gas fan housing
The flue gas fan and the flue pipe connection should be cleaned at least 2 times
a year, or after about 700 kg of pellets.
To inspect and clean the flue gas fan, the back wall has to be removed.
The four screws that secure the flue gas fan motor have to be opened and the
motor is carefully to pull out of the case.
Remove with a vacuum cleaner the ash from the fan and flue gas pipes. When
closing again definitely pay attention to leaks.
For cleaning the flue pipe connection, pull the flue pipe from the flue gas fan and
suck out the blower housing.
