Baffle Removal - St. Croix SCR Installation & Operation Manual

5. Exhaust System. Periodic cleaning of the exhaust system is required. Under certain
conditions chimneys may plug up rapidly. Dirty grain that has a high moisture content
or pellets with high ash content and installations with elbows and horizontal runs
require more frequent chimney cleanings. See Page 29 "Preventing Chimney Fires".
The products of combustion will also contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash
will collect in the exhaust vent and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Judge the
frequency of cleaning by checking the amount of ash that accumulates in the elbows
or tee's of the exhaust system. Ask the dealer for suggested frequency of cleaning,
equipment needed and procedures for cleaning. Check the exhaust system at least
once every two months during the heating season.
6. Gaskets. Periodically inspect the condition of the rope gasket around the door,
window and ash door. Replace as needed.
7. Air Filter. Check the Air Filter at least once a month and clean or replace when
needed. The filter material may be purchased at a local hardware stove and cut to
size to fit into the filter bracket.
