8. Cleaning the Exhaust Path, Bafes & Drop Tube
• Frequency: Monthly or every 25 bags or more fre-
quently depending on ash build-up.
• By: Homeowner
a. Appliance must be completely cool.
b. Open the door and remove the center bafe rst and
then the right and left bafes. Thoroughly vacuum the
exhaust path and drop tube and continue throughout
the rest of the rebox. Also vacuum the front and
back of the bafes.
c. Using a small brush, brush the inner walls of the
exhaust outlet from the access hole inside the rebox.
The access hole will be visible following the removal
of the left side bafe. After loosening up debris on
the inner walls of the outlet, vacuum out.
This is important as the exhaust temperature
probe is attached to the right side of the outlet.
If this is not maintained on a regular basis, the
appliance will experience nuisance shut downs
and/or missed ignitions.
d. Replace the right and left bafes and then the center
bafe and close and latch the door.
7. Cleaning the Hopper
• Frequency: Monthly or after burning 50 bags of fuel
• By: Homeowner
After burning approximately 50 bags of fuel you will
need to clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up.
A combination of sawdust and pellets on the bottom
end of the auger reduces the amount of fuel supply to
the repot. This can result in nuisance shutdowns and
mis-starts.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown.
Allow the appliance to completely run out of pellets
and cool down.
b. Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.
c. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube. To access the
feed tube remove the four screws from the auger
cover located inside of the hopper.
6. Cleaning the Glass
• Frequency: When clear view of the repot becomes
obscure
• By: Homeowner
a. Appliance must be completely cool before cleaning
glass.
b. Vacuum y ash from glass and door rope.
c. Use a damp paper towel or any non-abrasive glass
cleaner. Wipe off with dry towel.
Handle glass assembly with care.
When cleaning glass:
• Avoid striking, scratching or
slamming glass.
• Do NOT clean glass when hot.
CAUTION
• Do NOT use abrasive cleaners.
• Refer to maintenance instructions.
• Do NOT operate with glass cracked,
broken or scratched.
9. Door Handle Inspection
• Frequency: Monthly or prior to heating season
• By: Homeowner
The gasketing between the glass and rebox should be
inspected periodically to make sure there is a good seal.
NOTE: GHP recommends using a heavy duty vacuum
cleaner specically designed for solid fuel appli-
ance cleaning.
