Cleaning Out The Ashes; Cleaning The Flue; Majolicas (If Present); Products Made Of Natural Stone (If Present) - Nordica FLY IDRO DSA Manuel Utilisateur

CLEANINg OUT THE AsHEs

all the devices are equipped with a hearth grating and an ash drawer for the collection of the ashes
it is suggested to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid it fills completely in order not to overheat the grating. Moreover, it is
suggested to leave always 3-4 cm of ash in the hearth.
CAUTION: The ashes removed from the hearth have to be stored in a container made of fire-resistant material equipped
with an air-tight cover. The container has to be placed on a fire-resistant floor, far from flammable materials up to the
switching off and complete cooling.

CLEANINg THE FLUE

The correct lighting phase, the use of proper quantities and types of fuels, the correct position of the secondary air regulator, enough draught
of the chimney-flue and the presence of combustion air are the essential elements for the optimal functioning of the appliance.
The device should be completely cleaned at least once a year or every time it is needed (in case of bad working and low yield). an excessive
deposit of soot can cause problems in the discharge of smokes and fire in the flue.
The cleaning must be carried out exclusively with cold equipment. This operation should be carried out by a chimney sweeper
who can simultaneously perform an audit of the flue (checking of possible deposits).

MAJOLICAs (IF PREsENT)

La NORDICA s.p.A.has chosen majolica tiles, which are the result of high-quality artisan work. as they are completely carried out by hand,
the majolica may present crackles, speckles, and shadings. These characteristics certify their precious origin.
enamel and majolica, due to their different coefficient of dilatation, produce microcrackles, which show their authentic feature.
for the cleaning of the majolica we suggest you to use a soft and dry cloth; if you use a detergent or liquid, the latter might soak
in and highlight the crackles permanently.

PRODUCTs MADE OF NATURAL sTONE (IF PREsENT)

natural stone has to be cleaned with very thin abrasive paper or with an abrasive sponge. Do NOT use any cleanser or fluid.

VARNIsHED PRODUCTs (IF PREsENT)

after some years of product use a change in the varnished details colour is totally normal. This is due to the considerable temperature range
the product is subject to whenever in use and to the varnish ageing of time passing by.
ATTENTION: before any possible application of the new varnish, do clean and remove all the traces from the surface which has to
be varnished.

ENAMELLED PRODUCTs (IF PREsENT)

for the cleaning of enamelled surfaces use soap water or not aggressive and not chemically abrasive detergents.
after the cleaning do NOT let soapy water or any cleanser dry but remove them immediately.
DO NOT use sandpaper or steel wool.

CHROMIUM-COMPONENTs (IF PREsENT)

if the components become bluish due to overheating, this can be solved with a suitable product for cleaning. DO NOT use abrasives or
solvents.

MAINTENANCE ON THE WATER sYsTEM

excessive incrustation deposits on the inner walls of the hearth considerably reduce the efficiency of heat exchange; therefore,
remove these deposits using a steel brush whenever necessary. Never use corrosive substances that can damage the thermo-
fireplace and the boiler.
With the system switched off, once a year carry out the following checks:
Check the operation and efficiency of the blowdown and safety valves. if they are defective, contact your authorised installer. IT Is
•
sTRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO REMOVE OR TAMPER WITH THE sAFETY DEVICEs.
• Check the thermal insulation of the filling pipe and the safety pipe.
• Make sure that the system is filled and under pressure, checking the water level in the expansion tank; also check that it is working
properly and check the efficiency of the safety pipe.
