7.1 Boiler cleaning and maintenance
Pellet combustion means total combustion in this case. Little ash remains in the boiler. It is necessary to
clean the boiler only once, maybe twice a week. Detailed cleaning once in a month and when the heating
period is over. Regular maintenance of the boiler means:
With every cleaning, pull the handle up and down on the front side of the boiler. This is to force the
ash to fall dawn from the vertical tube heat exchanger into lower part of the boiler.
1. Emptying the ash from the bottom of the boiler (using the ash tray delivered with boiler)
2. Removing ash layers in the heating chamber if such
3. Cleaning the retort burner (round plate where pellets are falling in)
4. Cleaning the plate which is carrying the retort burner
The cleaning procedure is exactly described in the following images.
Before cleaning, make sure that boiler is turned off, and that all its parts are cool. Hand
gloves are to be used to access boiler parts.
Along the boiler special tool-kit is delivered
to access boiler doors and move the turbulators inside the boiler body.
Open the left boiler door with a tool-kit key.
