6. Maintenance

Cleaning and inspection

The insert should be inspected thoroughly and cleaned
at least once per season (possibly in combination with
the sweeping of the chimney and chimney pipes).
See also FIG 11 - FIG 12 - access to the chimney.
Ensure that all joints are tight and that the gaskets are
rightly positioned. Exchange any gaskets that are worn
or deformed.
Remember that the insert must always be cold when
inspected. The inspection shall be performed by the
Professional servicemen.
ATTENTION! In order to secure access to service
the air inlet regulator, make sure to place a suitable
service hatch or vent.

Ashes

The ashes should be removed with regular intervals.
Be aware that the ashes can contain hot ember even
several days after the fire is finished. Use a container of
non-combustible material to remove the ashes. It is
recommended to leave a layer of ashes in the bottom
as this further insulates the burn chamber. Take care
with the Thermotte plates when the ashes are remo-
ved, particularly when using an ash shovel, so as not to
damage them.
Thermotte™ plates
The insulation plates (Thermotte - FIG 3) are classified
as "wear and tear" parts which will require to be ex-
changed after some years.
The wear time will depend on the individual use of your
product. Nordpeis offers a one-year warranty on these
parts. After this, replacements can be purchased.
If new plates are needed, contact your dealer.
In case it is necessary to take out the Thermotte™
plates, this is done in following order.
A. Smoke baffle plate
B. Back plate
C. Front bottom plate
D. Bottom plate
E. Right side plate
F. Left side plate
Please note: Wood logs that are too long can cause
additional strain and crack the plates, due to the tension
created between the side plates.

Door and glass

Should there be any soot on the glass it may be
necessary to clean it. Use dedicated glass cleaner.
(Attention! Be careful, detergents can damage the
varnish and the gaskets). If different detergents are
used they may damage the glass. A good advice for
cleaning the glass is to use a damp cloth or kitchen roll
paper and apply some ash from the burn chamber. Rub
around the soot on the glass and finish off with a piece
of clean and damp kitchen roll paper.
Attention! Only clean when the glass is cold.
Check regularly that the transition between the glass
and the door is completely tight.
Periodically, it may be necessary to change the gaskets
on the door to ensure that the burn chamber is air tight
and working optimally. These gaskets can be bought as
a set including ceramic glue.
CERAMIC GLASS
CANNOT BE
RECYCLED
Ceramic glass should
be disposed of as resid-
ual waste, together with
pottery and porcelain
Recycling of the ceramic glass
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled. Old glass, breakage
or otherwise unusable ceramic glass must be discarded
as residual waste. Ceramic glass has a higher melting
temperature, and can therefore not be recycled together
with glass. If mixed with ordinary glass, it would damage
the raw material and could, in worst case end the
recycling of glass. It is an important contribution to the
environment to ensure that ceramic glass does not end
up with the recycling of ordinary glass.
Packaging recycle
The packaging accompanying the product should be
recycled according to national regulations.
