4.3 Cleaning the flue
A reduction in heat output is nearly always due to obstruction of the flue. Also, the presence of burnt gases with
odours can be a sign of an obstructed flue.
The flue of your stove must be cleaned at regular intervals. The amount of soot and the frequency of cleaning
will depend largely on the type of fuel and the type of use (low or high heat output).
To avoid unnecessary dust, carry out cleaning according to the following instructions:
- clean only when the stove is off;
- close all openings which are not to be cleaned;
- remove the flue pipe and clean outdoors;
- remove the deposits inside the stove with a wire brush;
- all the residuals removed from the grate or the ash pan must be taken away;
- in any case, detach the pipe from the flue.
When fitting the pipes, make sure not to damage the enamelled or painted parts and the seals.
Dispose of cleaning waste in accordance with the current local regulations.
4.4 Cleaning the cast iron hotplate
Before lighting the stove for the first time, make sure to carefully clean the hotplate with an absorbent cloth in
order to remove the protective grease.
For regular cleaning of the cast iron part of the hotplate, it is advisable to use slightly abrasive materials (e.g.
sandpaper or steel wool), rubbing in the direction of the surface finish.
At the end of the season it is advisable to apply a film of olive oil or neutral vaseline on the cast iron hotplate to
protect it.
4.5 Cladding maintenance
Clean the cladding only when the stove is cold .
The ceramics are handicraft production and therefore may have minor surface imperfections such as tiny spots
or slight colour differences.
It is advisable to use a soft dry cloth to clean the ceramic surfaces; the use of detergents could highlight any
imperfections.
