Yearly Maintenance (Or Every Two Tons); Clean The Exhaust Duct - Lopi Yankee Bay Pellet Insert Instruction Manual

Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons)

WARNING: Disconnect the power cord prior to conducting service.
The following section details extensive maintenance procedures. We strongly suggest these items
be carried out by a trained service technician, possibly by a service agreement set up with your dealer.
Soot and Flyash: Formation and Need for Removal – The products of combustion will
contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the
flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup, shutdown, or incorrect
operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting
system The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if
cleaning is necessary.
