Maintenance; Cleaning And Inspection; Ashes; Thermotte™ Insulating Plates - Nordpeis Havanna Manuel D'installation

IMPORTANT! Always remember to open the air
vent control and the door when new wood logs
are inserted into a hot burn chamber. Let the
flames get established on the wood before the air
supply is reduced.
Warning!
The Firebox shall to be always closed except
during ignition, refueling and ash removal.
When the draught in the chimney is low and
the vents are closed, the gas from the firewood
can be ignited with a bang. This can cause
damages to the product as well as the immediate
environment.

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). 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 insulating plates in the burn chamber (FIG 3)
contribute to a high combustion temperature, which
leads to cleaner combustion of the wood and a higher
rate of efficiency. Any fissures in the plates will not
reduce their insulation efficiency.
If new plates are needed, contact your dealer.
When dismantling, lift the smoke baffle plate (A) to
remove the sideplates and then the remaining plates.

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.
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. NB! Only clean
when the glass is cold.
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.
