Chimney Sweeping
Sweeping should be carried out with the correct size brush and rods to suit the chimney size and type. As with all appliances regu-
lar
sweeping of the lue is essential to avoid the danger of a blockage and escape of poisonous fumes. Access for cleaning should be
incorporated into the chimney (e.g. soot door, access through the register plate etc.)
Any existing chimney should be swept prior to installation of the stove, and then again a second time within one month of regular
use after installation to establish the frequency of sweeping required. This should be done by and competent person such as a
NACS chimney
engineer who will provide a Certiicate of Chimney Sweeping. Sweep the whole lue way, including the outlet at least twice a year

may be removed with a small metal shovel whilst the ire is still

other side of the irebox. Care must be taken not to risk burning
your hands or household objects from falling embers. The ash
pan should be emptied at least twice a day or when the ash
reaches the top of the ash pan. On no account should the ash
be allowed to build up to touch the underside of the grate bars,
as this will greatly reduce the life span of the grate.

carpet, rug etc.) either during the de-ashing procedure or afterwards as the ash will remain very hot for some time and will rapidly heat the con-
tainer if left to stand, possibly causing damage or even a ire. Even if the ash appears cold, red-hot pieces of ash may be concealed and could easily
start a ire or cause injury.
The stove will remain very hot for a considerable time after the re has died down or been extinguished.
Petroleum coke fuels or household waste must not be burnt on this appliance.
