Smoke And Soot Smell; The Glass Soots Up When Lighting The Fire; Maintenance; Cleaning And Maintenance - TermaTech TT70 Montage- Und Bedienungsanleitung

• Does the room where the stove is placed have sufficient airflow?
• It is especially the conditions surrounding the chimney that may cause problems. Is the
chimneys diameter and length correct in relation to the stove?
• Is there possibly anything interfering at the chimney top (trees or alike) which prevents it
from functioning optimally.
• Is the chimney blocked?
• Are the smoke pipe and junctions sealed?
• Is the cleaning hatch sealed?
• Is the extractor hood or ventilationsystem causing negative pressure.
If the problem persist please contact your dealer or chimney sweeper.

6.3. Smoke and soot smell

Incident
• Smoke and soot smell
Solution
• Down draught in the chimney. This often happens in specific wind directions.
• The chimney needs to be elongated or a smoke extractor must be mounted. Contact your
dealer.
• The chimney may be too short in relation to the roof and / or nearby trees/buildings.
• Check that the smoke is not able to come in via any skylights or windows.
• Close the door/keep the door closed while there are flames.
• Check the moisture of your wood.

6.4. The glass soots up when lighting the fire

Incident
• The glass soots up when lighting the fire
Solution
• This is most likely due to moist wood or too low temperatures.
• There is not enough draught in the chimney.
• Check that the air-control-handle is not closed.
• The stove door is closed to early/or too late when igniting (section 3.7.3)

7.0. Maintenance

7.1. Cleaning and maintenance

The wood-burning stove and smoke pipe should be maintained and cleaned once a year.
The chimney must likewise be cleaned by the chimney sweeper who will set the necessary inter-
vals for cleaning / sweeping.
The wood-burning stove should be inspected by a professional about once a year.

7.2. Parts

Because of fit etc. we recommend that you only use original parts from TermaTech. The cleaning
of the stove should only be performed when the stove is cold. The daily maintenance is limited
but once a year the stove should get a thorough maintenance. The combustion chamber should
be cleaned for ashes and soot. The door hinges and the closing mechanism should be lubricated
with copper grease or another heat resistant lubricant.

7.3. Joints/gaskets

The joints/gaskets can look ok but over time they can collapse under the heat and can thereby
loose the ability to keep the stove sealed. joints/gaskets should be changed as needed. This as-
sures a good environmentally friendly combustion and a clean window.

7.4. The surface

The surface is maintained by brushing it with a soft brush, possibly the vacuum cleaner with a
brush. The stove can also be dusted with a duster. Always remember: only when the stove is
cold. Never use cleaning detergents or water on the lacquered surface.

7.5. The insulation plates

The insulation plates in the combustion chamber that are broken or worn can easily be changed
as they are loosely mounted. The material used is called Vermiculite and is a porous but very
suitable insulation material. It has no effect on the stove's efficiency that the insulation cracks.
However, it should be replaced when the wear surpasses half of the original thickness or when it
is recommended by the chimney sweeper. For replacement, see illustration section 13.1.
