SURFACES - Jayline wood res have high temperature painted surfaces which just need wiping to clean
when the re is cold.
FIREBOX - Check the rebricks, top bae and interior surfaces. These parts are subjected to considerably
high temperatures and stress and some parts will eventually need replacing.
DOORS - Check all gaskets used for wear and replace if necessary. Adjust door tting if required.
LUBRICATION - All moving parts should be lubricated with graphite grease every couple of months.
CHIMNEY CLEANING AND CHECKING FLUES
For all wood res, ue cleaning must be done regularly to avoid serious ue res. Frequently used res
should be cleaned at least once a year (some sooner). The cleaning rate, however, depends on the
burning habits of the individual operating the wood re. For example, it is possible to clog a ue in just a
few weeks if smouldering res are burnt and the ue is run cold.
It is recommended that ue sweeping be done by a professional chimney sweep. Chimney sweeping is a
specialist task and competent professional sweeps are available throughout the country. When the ue
is cleaned it is recommended that other parts, such as baes, are checked.
Flue systems should be checked at least once or twice a heating season. Flue systems may require
checking more often if the fuel or operation of the appliance is incorrect. When a ue system becomes
excessively blocked or requires frequent cleaning, advice should be sought to investigate the installation
and the operation of the re. Flue pipes can deteriorate very quickly with incorrect ring.
CONSUMABLES
Some parts of your Jayline re are considered consumable. They are designed to be replaced as they will
degrade over time. The life of the consumables will vary depending on;
• Frequency of use. How often the re is used
• Rate of burn. Is the re burning on low or high the majority of the time
• Type of fuel. Some woods are much harsher than others
General items that are considered consumables:
• Baes
• Fire bricks
• Air tubes
• Glass and door ropes
