Cleaning Of The Glass; Cleaning Of The Ash Drawer; Summer Stop; Connecting A Chimney Or Open Furnace To The Flue - LA NORDICA Giulietta Instructions For Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

This operation should be carried out by a chimney sweeper who can simultaneously perform an audit of
the flue (checking of possible deposits). During the cleaning, it is necessary to remove from the appliance
the ash drawer and the smokes pipes. It is possible to clean the space for the collection of smokes from
the hearth or through the smoke exhaust, by using a brush and a vacuum cleaner. Once the cleaning
has been completed, the same has to be positioned back in its seat.

CLEANING OF THE GLASS

Thanks to a specific entry of the secondary air the building of deposit on the glass of the door is slowed
down in a remarkable way. However the building of this deposit cannot be avoided with the use of solid
fuels such as wet wood, and this is not to be considered as a defect of the appliance.
IMPORTANT:
The cleaning of the sight glass must be carried out only and exclusively with cold appliance to
avoid the explosion of the same. Do not use cloths, abrasive or chemically aggressive products by
cleaning the hearth glass.
BREAK OF GLASSES:
Considering that the glasses are manufactured in glass-ceramic and resistant to heat shock up to
750 ° C, they are not subject to thermal shocks. The ir break can be caused only by mechanic shocks
(bumps or violent closure of the door, etc.). Therefore, their replacement is not included in the
warranty.
12.3

CLEANING OF THE ASH DRAWER

All chimney stoves of La NORDICA have a hearth grate and an ash drawer for the collection of ashes. We
suggest you to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid filling it up totally, in order not to overheat
the grate. Furthermore, we recommend letting always 3-4 cm's of ash in the hearth.
ATTENTION: The ashes removed from the hearth have to be stored in a container made of fire-resistant
material equipped with an air-tight cover.
The container has to be placed on a fire-resistant floor, far from flammable materials up to the switching off
and complete cooling.

13 SUMMER STOP

After you have cleaned the hearth, the chimney and the flue, trying to eliminate completely the ash and
others residuals, you must close the doors of the hearth and its registers; in case you disconnect the
appliance from the chimney, close its opening in order to let work other possible appliances connected to
the same flue.
The cleaning of the flue should be done at least once a year; in the meanwhile check the state of the
gaskets, which if not perfectly intact, that is to say that they are not more close-fitting with the stove, do not
guarantee the good working of the stove! In that case the gaskets must be replaced.
In presence of dampness in the room where the stove has been placed, we advise you to put absorbent
salts into the hearth.

14 CONNECTING A CHIMNEY OR OPEN FURNACE TO THE FLUE

The smoke channel is the section of tube that connects the product to the flue, in the connection these
simple but very important principles must be followed:
•
for no reason must the smoke channel be used with a diameter lower than that of the neck of the
outlet with which the product is fitted;
•
each metre of horizontal route of the smoke channel causes a small leak of charge which should be
compensated for by raising the flue;
•
the horizontal section must never be higher than 2 m (UNI 10683-2005);
•
each bend of the smoke channel considerably reduces the draught of the flue which must be
compensated for by raising it suitably;
•
the UNI 10683-2005 Regulation –Italy requires that the bends or variations of direction must in no
case be greater than 2 including the emission into the flue.
Wanting to use the flue of a chimney or open furnace, it will be necessary to close the hood hermetically
below the inlet point of the smoke channel pos. A Picture 9.
