Ash Disposal and Removal

CAUTION: Be sure the fire is out and the stove is cold before removing ashes!
Be careful when you empty the stove for the ashes. There may be embers left up to 24 hours after
the stove was last used. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be places on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well away
from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
If 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.

Cleaning of Stove

The stove is cleaned with a moist cloth. Senotherm spray is available for repair of possible
damages/scratches. Your dealer has the right spray in the right color. As there may be minor color
differences, it is recommended to repair large areas with natural borders. You will get the best result
if the stove is repaired while it is lukewarm (if the stove is too hot the paint will be granular).
Remember a good airing during the repair. A possible change of color to gray is caused by over-
firing, i.e. you have used more wood than recommended.

Soapstone

The soapstones are cleaned with fine sandpaper or a dry sponge.
