6. Maintenance

6.1. Boiler maintenance.

Boiler needs to be serviced for idle time ( summer season, absence of user).
Sides of loading, ash chamber, chimney flap and heat exchanger needs to be cleaned regularly (it
is advisable to burn softwood like spruce to remove pitch before summer season). After burning
softwood leave the boiler open – in this way damp is not condensing on the sides of boiler.
ATTENTION!
It is advisable to control the boiler annually in order to prepare it well for the next
heating season.
6.2. Fan's conservation
Ash created during wood burning falls down through the nozzle to ash chamber, that's why it is
advisable to remove the ash from bottom chamber. Each time before lightning up the boiler it is
recommended to clean loading chamber. Ash needs to be removed through the nozzle. Use the
tools supplied with the boiler.
Pitch is created during gasification process. Amount of created pitch depends on wood type,
humidity and water temperature coming out and into the boiler. It is recommended to clean
loading chamber at least once a month.
Particles in exhaust gases flowing through the heat exchanger create on their surface deposit.
Deposition causes lowering of inner pipes dimension and lowering of heat exchange surface.
That is why it is necessary to clean heat exchanger pipes each time after boiler stoking with
cleaning mechanism lever.
ATTENTION!
It is necessary to use clearing mechanism lever each time after stoking the boiler,
otherwise pitch may clogged turbulators.
ATTENTION!
To avoid accumulation of ash in bottom chamber especially at the back side below
heat exchanger pipes, it is necessary to remove the ash with boiler tools.
