MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

Important Notes

• As with any maintenance concerning this unit, be sure the unit is “OFF” and

has completed the Shut-Down cycle BEFORE starting.

• 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.

• Monthly maintenance should include the steps listed in this section AS

WELL AS the steps listed in the “Weekly Maintenance” and “Biweekly
Maintenance” sections.

• Intervals between monthly cleanings will depend on the duration that stove

is burning on a daily basis. A stove which is operated continuously will
need more frequent monthly cleanings than a stove which is used
periodically as supplemental heat.

• A good rule of thumb for monthly maintenance is that it should be done each

time an entire ton of pellets is burned, OR once per month, whichever comes
first.

• If excess ash accumulation is found in the exhaust chamber or venting

system during monthly maintenance, the interval between cleanings should
be reduced to eliminate the possibility of poor stove performance due to ash
accumulation.
