5.4. Glass cleanness

The cleanness of the transparent glass depends on the type of the fuel, proper combustion air

supply (this is applied especially to the secondary air) , the chimney effect and – last but not

least – on the way how the fireplace insert is operated. It is recommended to load one layer of the

wood only: the logs should be laid evenly, farther from the glass (as far as possible). The rule is the

same for coal cakes as well (keep the distance 5 to 0 mm between them). If the glass is dirty, we

recommend to increase the firing intensity by opening the primary air regulator, which usually

supports the self-acting cleaning process.

5.5. Operation during temporary period and at worsened weather conditions

For temporary periods , for example, during the time when outdoor temperature is above 15

during rainy and wet days, in case of gusty wind, etc. the chimney effect may worsen thus the smoke

is not led away in full as usual. Therefore, during such period, you should operate the fireplace

insert with smallest possible quantity of fuel, to allow improving the firing process and the chimney

effect by opening the air inlets in case you need to make adjustments.

5.6.

Fireplace insert function adjustment

Some models are provided with the so-called blind element that serves as the chimney effect

conditioner as well. After removal of such blind element, those models must be completed with

warm-water exchanger allowing connection to heating bodies to provide heat in adjacent rooms or

with a water back boiler. A warm water exchanger may be supplied as special accessory (detailed

instructions for operation and installation provided). Order the installation of fireplace insert with

warm water exchanger at specialist company (ask for installation following from the project

documentation).

Caution! A fireplace insert equipped with a warm water exchanger must not be operated

without the connection to the warm water distribution system or the water filled, or without

anti-freezing mixture, respectively.

For any installation of warm water pipeline, the requirements on heat systems and

networks in buildings valid in the country of installation must be adhered to.

Heaters using fossil fuel designed for dwelling space

Built-in heat devices and stove inserts using solid fuel

Caution! If you install a fireplace insert with a warm water exchanger, before lining and

before first fire, you must connect the exchanger in the heating system operated in order to

check the warm water distribution system for leak.

5.7. Ash removal

Depending on the length and the intensity of the firing process, you need to use a fire hook or poking

lever (if installed with the particular model) in order to knock the ash down the grate to the ashpan.

Monitor the content of the ashpan - do not allow too much ash in it. Excessive ash may block

the air supply under the grate thus causing problems at fire setting or burning.

Always empty the ashpan when cold. The best approach is to empty the ashpan just before you start

preparing the next fire. With some models, the ashpan is located just under the grate

(impossible to take it away on the side). If this is the case, empty the ashpan only if cold,

while the heating system is not in operation. Ash from wood may be used for composting or for

fertilizing.

Caution! Before you touch the ashpan to empty it, check it for fire brand. Prevent any likely

fire in the dustbin.

6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

6.1. Cleaning

The fireplace insert (cold) needs cleaning at least once a year (after the season), or twice or more (

if needed). During the cleaning ,you should remove any dirt caught in the smoke flue, the firing area

and on the partitions. Loose parts of the fireclay lining should be repaired (i.e. replaced). Check the

fireclay lining for integrity even during the heating season. The gaps between the brick shapes are

designed for heat dilatation, to avoid brick cracking. Therefore YOU SHOULD NOT fill any sealing in

the gaps (as it used be before with older heating devices).

Cracked fireclay bricks do not lose the function unless they are completely fallen out of the

position!

In the course of the cleaning procedure, we recommend you to remove all movable partitions (for

easier access in the area above them). To clean the glass, apply standard cleaning agents designed

for cleaning stove, cooker or oven. Use a soft cloth or paper, or special agents designed for cleaning

fireplace glass.Only clean the glass when cold. For cleaning the painted surface, never use water: it

is recommended to clean such surface with sponge or soft flannel cloth.

Caution! With selected types of fireplace insert, the vertical side of the firing area is provided with

VERMICULITE. The same material is used for some chimney effect conditioners. The material is

irreparable. In case of any damage, just have it replaced. Vermiculate products are characteristic

with top heat-insulating parameters and good resistance to cracking. The resistance to abrasion is

somehow lower so it is recommended to keep this in mind while reloading and cleaning.

6.2. Sealing lines and tapes

Contact areas of doors and glass (or other parts of the heating device) are provided with a special

glass-ceramic sealing line (tape) that is resistant to high temperatures. We recommend you to check

the tape for integrity, and have it replaced if necessary.

After some time, any newly installed sealing tape lays flat so it is recommended to check the

tightness (the glass tightly installed in the door construction) after approx. 3 months of usage. If you

find any release, tighten the glass holders (carefully!)

6.3. Spare parts

In case of repair, use only original spare parts recommended by the manufacturer, see Chapter

10.3 (Recommended spare parts). Identify the spare part with use of the Technical Card (a part of

the supply).
