  • Page 29: In Case Of A Chimney Fire / Chimney Maintenance / Wood

    CHIMNEY MAINTENANCE It is very important to carefully maintain your Chalet 1600 stove, including burning seasoned wood and main- taining a clean stove and chimney system. Have the chimney cleaned before the burning season and as nec- essary during the season, as creosote deposits may build up rapidly. Moving parts of your stove require no lubrication.
