7. Maintenance
Cleaning and inspection
The fireplace should be inspected thoroughly and
cleaned at least once per season (possibly in
combination with the sweeping of the chimney and
chimney pipes).
The inspection shall be performed by the Professional
servicemen.
Ensure that all joints are tight and that the gaskets are
rightly positioned. Exchange any gaskets that are worn
or deformed.
Remember that the fireplace must always be cold when
inspected.
Ashes
The ashes should be removed regularly. Be aware
that the ashes can contain hot ember even several
days after the fire has 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 removed,
particularly when using an ash shovel, so as not to
damage them.
Thermotte™ insulating plates
The insulation plates (Thermotte - FIG 3) are classified
as "wear and tear" parts which will require to be
exchanged 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 the Thermotte plates need to be replaced see
FIG 3-3f.

Please note: Wood logs that are too long can cause
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,
as other detergents may damage the glass. (NB! Be
careful, even dedicated glass cleaner can damage the
varnish on the door
frame).
the glass is to use a damp cloth or kitchen roll paper
and apply some ash from the burn chamber. Rub
around the ash on the glass and finish off with a piece
of clean and damp kitchen roll paper. Attention! Only
clean when the glass is cold.

A good advice for cleaning
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, usually 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. In case it would be 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.

9. Advice on lighting a fire
The best way to light a fire is with the use of lightening
briquettes and dry kindling wood. Newspapers
cause a lot of ashes and the ink is damaging for the
environment. Advertising flyers, magazines, milk
cartons and similar are not suitable for lighting a fire.
Good air supply is important at ignition. When the flue is
hot the draught increases and door can be closed.
