Glass Cleaning
The stove glass will self-clean when there is sufficient heat generated by the burning fuel i.e. when the unit is operat-
ed at the maximum air settings. If a build-up of creosote occurs on the glass it may be due to low draft conditions,
poor quality fuel or operating the stove at the minimum air settings for long periods of time. The glass should be
cleaned when cool and cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth using warm soapy water. For stubborn deposits, a grade 0
steel wool can be used whilst taking care not to scratch the glass with any coal/ash deposits.
Cleaning a Matt Black/Senotherm Stove
Cleaning should be done when the stove is cold by removing any dust or dirt using a dry cloth. Do not use any water
on the matt black/senotherm finish as this will cause it to rust
Changing the Rope Seals
The rope seal between the door & the front casting will compress & harden over time and whilst small adjustments
can be made to the door catch to ensure the integrity of the rope seal, it will be necessary to replace the rope seals
on the stove periodically depending on stove usage. It is recommended that the rope seals are changed at least every
two years.

Cleaning Stove Flue Pathways
To access the flue pathways, the top baffle should be removed from
the stove through the fire door opening and cleaned thoroughly. To
remove the top baffle by lifting it at the front edge, pushing it back-
wards to allow the front tab of the baffle to clear the fixing lug located
on the back of the front casting (see Figure 4) and then lowering it into
the firebox so that it can be removed through the door opening. If the
baffle is distorted and can't be removed as described above, the top
casting can be removed to allow for access to the baffle.

Adjusting the Door Catch
Over time, the fire door latch can loosen due to the continual compres-
sion and hardening of the rope seal between the door and the front
casting. The position of the latch can be easily adjusted (in order to
tighten the door closure) by removing the nut holding on the door latch
and repositioning the washers between the latch & the door casting to
allow the latch to be positioned closer to the back of the door casting
— see Figure 5. The tightness of the door seal should be checked after
each adjustment is made. It is recommended that the rope seals on
the stove are changed at least every two years or sooner if the seal
loses its integrity
Chimney Cleaning
The chimney should be cleaned twice annually or if the stove is not
used for a prolonged period during the summer period, it should be
cleaned prior to commencement of usage. The chimney can be
cleaned through the stove depending on the flue configuration and the
flue liner should be cleaned in accordance with manufacturer’s in-
structions. Always use a brush with plastic bristles that is the correct
size to reach all areas of the flue.
