ASH PAN AND DOOR GASKETS (weekly)
After extended use the gasketing may come loose. To repair this, glue the gasketing on using high-
temperature fiberglass gasket glue available from your local ENVIRO dealer. This is important to maintain
an airtight assembly.
ASH PAN (weekly)
The ash pan is located under the ash shelf. To remove the ash pan, simply turn the latch with a large
standard blade screwdriver and pull out towards the front. Dump the ashes into a metal container stored
away from combustibles. Monitor the ash level every week. Remember that different pellet fuels will
have different ash contents. Ash content is a good indication of fuel efficiency and quality. Refer to
“I

” for disposal of ashes. It is important to latch the
ashpan tightly whe re-installing it.
DO NOT PLACE UNBURNED OR RAW PELLET FUEL IN ASH PAN.
HEAT EXCHANGER TUBES (weekly)
Open the cast front and the rod is located under the unit top, in the center of the stove just above the
door. This handle is to be pulled out a few times (ONLY WHEN THE UNIT IS COLD) in order to clean
away any fly ash that may have collected on the heat exchanger tubes. As different types of pellets
produce different amounts of ash, cleaning of the tubes should be done on a regular basis to enable the
unit to run efficiently.
FRESH AIR INTAKE (season)
Inspect periodically to be sure that it is not clogged with any foreign materials.
