Soot and Fly Ash
Formation and Need For Removal- The products of
combustion will contain small particles of y ash. The y
ashwillcollect in the exhaust venting system and restrict
theowoftheuegases.Incompletecombustion,suchas
occursduring startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of
theroomheater,willleadtosomesootformationwhichwill
collectintheexhaustventingsystem.Theexhaustventing
systemshouldbeinspectedaftertherstmonthofburning
todeterminethefrequencyofcleaningthatwillberequired,
andatleastyearlythereafter.NOTE:Thefrequencycould
varyfromonceamonthtoonceaseasondependingonthe
qualityofthefuelbeingused.
