Breckwell P23FSA Fire Pit User Manual


 
VACUUM USE
If a vacuum is used to clean your unit, we suggest using a vacuum
designed for ashes.
(We recommend LoveLess Ash Vac, 1-800-568-3949 Ext. #27)
Some regular vacuums and shop vacs leak ash into the room. Your
vacuum or shop vac may have a special filter or bag available to
eliminate this leakage.
CLEANING
a. Heat Exchange Tubes Your Breckwell stove is designed
with a built-in heat exchange tube cleaner. This should be used
every two or three days to remove accumulated ash on the
tubes, which reduces heat transfer on the P23. Insert the
handle end (with hole) of the cleaning tool onto the cleaning
rod (refer to figure 24). The cleaner rod is located in the grill
above the stove door. Move the cleaner rod back and forth
several times to clean the heat exchanger tubes. Be sure to
leave tube cleaner at the rear of the stove.
b. Interior Chambers Four ash doors in the firebox in the P23
can be removed for periodic cleaning (refer to figure 26). These
doors allow access to the chamber surrounding the firebox.
Periodically, you must vacuum ashes from this chamber. In some
cases you will need to remove creosote, which can accumulate
rapidly under certain conditions. A small wire brush can be used. It
is important to remove this creosote because it is highly
combustible. INSPECT BEHIND THESE CLEANING PLATES AT
LEAST ONCE PER TON OF PELLETS BURNED UNTIL YOU ARE
FAMILIAR WITH HOW ASHES AND CREOSOTE ACCUMULATE
WITH YOUR OPERATING PRACTICES. Use the small wire brush
to also clean the inside of the chamber walls, above the access
doors.
BLOWERS
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT POWER
BEFORE SERVICING UNIT.
Cleaning Over a period of time, ashes or dust may collect on the
blades of both the combustion blower and convection blower.
Periodically the blowers should be vacuumed clean as these ashes
can impede performance. Creosote can also accumulate in the
combustion blower. This needs to be brushed clean. The convection
blower is accessed by opening the stove’s left side panel. The
combustion blower can be accessed by opening the stoves right
side panel. The convection blower is on the left (facing stove), and
the combustion blower is on the right.
NOTE: When cleaning, be careful not to dislodge balancing clip on
convection blower or to bend fan blades. Some stove owners lightly
spray an anti-creosote chemical on the fire to help reduce creosote
formation within the stove.
