Insert Maintenance Tools
Included with the insert are three tools for maintenance: a bottle brush, brush and the cleaning tool.
Opening the Door
MAKE SURE THE HEATER HAS FULLY COOLED (APPROXIMATELY 45 MINUTES) BEFORE
OPENING THE DOOR AND CONDUCTING SERVICE.
Turn the handle clockwise and pull to open the door, as shown below.
Inspect the Burn
Once a week you should inspect the flame quality inside your appliance. When burning on high, the
flames should be bright orange. If the flames seem to be coming only from the sides, or are
orange/black, turn the heater off and check for clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump). The most likely
causes of clinkers are:
 Poor pellet quality
 The door or glass has an air leak
 The exhaust system requires cleaning
