MAINTENANCE
BLOWERS
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCON-
NECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT.
Cleaning – Over a period of time, ashes or dust may
collect on the blades of both the combustion blower
and convection blower. Periodically the blowers
should be vacuumed clean as these ashes can im-
pede performance. Creosote can also accumulate
in the combustion blower. This needs to be brushed
clean. The convection blower is accessed by remov-
ing the stove’s left side panel. The combustion blow-
er can be accessed by removing the stove’s right
side panel. The convection blower is on the left (fac-
ing stove), and the combustion blower is on the right.
NOTE: When cleaning, be careful not to dislodge
balancing clip on convection blower or to bend fan
blades. Some stove owners lightly spray an anti-creo-
sote chemical on the fire to help reduce creosote for-
mation within the stove.
