Maintaining The Installation - RAIS Q-Tee II INSERT USA Series User Manual

Maintaining the installation.

Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and firing technique. Check daily for creo-
sote build-up until experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe. Be aware
that the hotter the fire the less creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be
necessary in mild weather even though monthly cleaning may be enough in the coldest
months. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority for information on
how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly understood plan to handle a chimney fire.
