Heatmaster G100 Operation And Maintenance Manual page 23

All covers and guards must in place at all times, except for maintenance or service.
Care for the exterior of your furnace is minimal. The user must wash and remove ash
and creosote regularly.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed con-
tainer should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well away from all
combustible materials before final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in
soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until
all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
Creosote – Formation and Need for Removal. When wood is burned slowly, it pro-
duces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form
creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-
burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ig-
nited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney and chimney connector
should be inspected at least twice monthly during the heating season to determine if a
creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be removed to
reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
CAUTION: Make certain that all electrical power to the furnace and components is shut
CAUTION:
off. It can be washed using water and a mild non abrasive cleaner suitable for painted
surfaces.
