Movingparts of your stove require no lubrication.MAINTENANCEWOOD STORAGEStore wood under cover, such as in a shed, orcovered with a tarp, plastic, tar paper, sheetsof scrap plywood, etc., as uncovered wood canabsorb water from rain or snow, delaying theseasoning process.Glass RetainerRemove 12 screws.CREOSOTEWhen wood is burned slowly, it produces tar andother organic vapours, which when combinedwith moisture, form creosote. The creosote va-pours condense in the relatively cool chimneyflue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosoteresidue accumulates on the fl ue lining. Whenignited, this creosote can result in an extremelyhot fi re.GLASS MAINTENANCEYour Hampton stove is supplied with 5 mmNeoceram ceramic glass (Part #940-345) thatwill withstand the highest heat that your unit willproduce. In the event that you break your glassby impact, purchase your replacement from anauthorized Hampton dealer only, and follow ourstep-by-step Glass Installation/Replacementinstructions (refer to previous section).It will be necessary to clean carbon and fly ashoff of the glass at times. If carbon and fly ashremain on the glass for an extended period oftime, the glass could eventually become etchedand cloudy.1) Allow the stove to cool down completelybefore cleaning the glass, do not clean theglass when it is hot.2) Use cleaners specifi cally designed for thisglass cleaning. Do not use abrasive clean-ers.3) Ensure the glass is dry before burning yourstove.1) Burn stove with the draft control wide openfor about 10-15 minutes every morningduring burning season.2) Burn stove with draft control wide openfor about 10 - 15 minutes every time youapply fresh wood. This allows the wood toachieve the charcoal stage faster and burnsup any unburned gas vapours which mightotherwise be deposited within the system.3) Only burn seasoned wood! Avoid burningwet or green wood. Seasoned wood hasbeen dried at least one year.4) A small hot fi re is preferable to a largesmouldering one that can deposit creosotewithin the system.5) The chimney and chimney connector shouldbe inspected at least once every two monthsduring the heating season to determine if acreosote buildup has occurred.6) Have chimney system and unit cleanedby competent chimney sweeps twice ayear during the first year of use and atleast once a year thereafter or when asignificant layer of creosote has accu-mulated (3mm/1/8" or more) it should beremoved to reduce the risk of a chimneyfi re.WARNING: Things to remember in caseof a chimney fire:1. Close all draft and damper controls.2. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.Ways to Prevent and Keep UnitFree of Creosote |
