5.2.3 Cleaning the Chimney
Chimney cleaning can be a difficult and
dangerous job. If you don’t have
experience cleaning chimneys, you might
want to hire a professional chimney sweep
to clean and inspect the system for the first
time. After having seen the cleaning
process, you can decide if it is a job you
would like to take on.
The most common equipment used are
fibreglass rods with threaded fittings and
stiff plastic brushes. The brush is forced up
and down inside the chimney flue to scrub
off the creosote.
The chimney connector assembly should
always be cleaned at the same time the
chimney is cleaned.
CAUTION: Operation of your stove without the baffle may cause unsafe and hazardous
temperature conditions and will void the warranty. NOTE: Before installing the firebrick, check to
ensure that none are broken or damaged in any way. If so, have the damaged ones replaced.
Check the firebrick for damage at least annually and replace any broken or damaged ones with
new ones. Inspection and cleaning of the chimney is facilitated by the removable baffle.
