Chimney Sweeping

Chimney Sweeping needs special tools like some glass fiber
rods and a suitable brush to the chimney's diameter.
It also requires to go up on the roof to remove the chimney cap
and even a part of the chimney in case that your chimney
exceeds 5 feet from the roof.
We recommend to call a Professional chimney Sweeper
certified by APC in Quebec, the WETT in the rest of Canada or
by NFI in United States.

Door maintenance

The door is the mobile element that need a special attention.
Its tightness is primordial. If you see the white soot sticking on
the door glass and on the surface where the air passes, it is
the time to change the braided glass fibre rope.

Air Tighten Adjustment

If the braided glass fiber rope still seems good enough but little
flatten, it needs probably to be stuck against the door.
Door adjustment (hinges side)
Important: To keep squareness of the door, keep the door
locked and loosen only one hinge at a time.
1) Loosen lightly upper hinge
2) Push the door against the stove so that the glass fibre
rope is flattened.
3) Keeping the door pressed against the stove, tighten
the upper hinge.
4) Loosen lightly lower hinge.
5) Push the door against the stove so that the glass fibre
rope is flattened.
6) Keeping the door pressed against the stove, tighten
the lower hinge.
7) Open the door and slide a piece of paper in the gap in
the door, then close the door.
8) If you can easily pull out the paper without tearing,
please repeat the previous steps.
9) Even after several attempts, if the paper comes off
easily, the braided glass fiber rope must be changed.
Door adjustment (right side)
You can do this adjustment with the screw under the door near
the hook hole.
1) Unlock and open the door.
2) With a square-headed screwdriver, turn clockwise the
adjustment screw a quarter turn.
3) Put a piece of paper between the stove and braided
glass fiber rope, then close and lock the door.
4) If the paper easily comes out when you pull it, repeat
step 1 to 3 again.
5) If the screw is completely tightened and the paper
comes out easily, you have to change the braided
glass fiber rope.
Some models might have two screws apart on the front
face. These must not be unscrewed in any case. They
hold the rolling mechanism to lock the door.

Cleaning up glass

To clean the door glass, J.A. Roby Inc. recommends using
products for this purpose or an oven cleaner only for glass part.

Avoid cleaning hot glass and cleaning with abrasive.
Cleaning hot glass can cause a thermal shock and
brake the glass.
