Grate Removal and Replacement
Remove the ash pan, baffle, side bricks and rear brick before finally removing
the grate. Replacement is in the reverse order.
Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean fly-ash off baffle plate in the top of the stove at least
once a month. When in regular use and after long shut down periods. To gain
access to baffle lift top brick and slide it side and backwards, remove right hand
side brick. Now top brick can be manipulated out of the stove door. You can now
gain access to the baffle plate. This can be removed, cleaned off and replaced.
The top brick is manipulated back into position and side brick replaced. Make
sure top brick has located all round.
Stove Body
The stove is finished with a heat-resistant paint and this can be cleaned with a
soft brush. Do not clean whilst the stove is hot – wait until it has cooled down.
The finish can be renovated with Capital Fireplaces Stove Paint available from
your supplier.
Glass Panels
Clean the glass panels when cool with Gallery Glass Cleaner. Highly abrasive
substances should be avoided as these can scratch the glass and make
subsequent cleaning more difficult. Wet logs on heated glass, a badly aimed
poker or heavy slamming of doors could crack the glass panels. The glass will
not fracture from heat.
Should a glass panel require replacement, then remove the four screws and clips
retaining the glass frame, carefully remove the broken glass and replace the
panel with the correct stove glass from your supplier. Ensure you use new glass
fibre seal around its edge, and use the steel frame, clips and screws to retain it
in position.
Seasonal Maintenance
If your stove is be unused for any length of time, e.g. summer months, then it is
recommended that it is cleaned out thoroughly. Air slides should be lightly oiled
with WD40 or similar and left partially open to allow air circulation (DO NOT
SPRAY ANY AEROSOL PRODUCT ONTO A HOT STOVE). Regular monitoring of the
inside components will identify condensation or water ingress. If these
