DAILY MAINTENANCE
Important Notes
As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF” and has
completed the Shut‐Down cycle BEFORE beginning.
Be aware that metal parts in the firebox can remain HOT long after the fire has gone out
and EVEN after the Shut‐Down cycle is complete. Always use extreme caution when
handling potentially hot stove parts, even if you think they should be cold.
Ashes should only be removed when the stove has been shut‐down and has been
allowed to cool thoroughly. Hot embers can remain under ashes long after the fire has
gone out, so always be extra careful when handling any ashes from this (or any) stove.
Different pellets will generate varying amounts of ash and burnpot deposits. Carefully
monitor the ash build up in the stove when first operating the unit, as well as whenever
a different brand of pellets is burned.
While the amount of ash generated by this unit is not excessive compared to a
traditional log‐burning woodstove, keeping the unit clean and free of ash is ESSENTIAL
for peak performance and maximum efficiency. Ash build‐up hampers airflow, reduces
efficiency, and can cause a smoke back.
England’s Stove Works® is not responsible for any damages incurred due to a poorly
maintained and/or dirty stove. This pellet stove is a highly efficient machine and, as
such, requires sufficient maintenance to keep it operating at its peak.
Ash Removal and Disposal
Press the “Off” button and allow the stove to complete the shut‐down cycle and cool
completely.
Because of the open design of the firebox, the majority of the ash will already be in the
ash pan. Open the main door of the stove and use an old paint brush or putty knife to
move ash from around the burnpot into the ash pan below.
Disposal of Ashes – Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible
materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil
or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container
until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.
