9. Maintenance – always use original parts
Maintenance and cleaning of the stove should only be performed when the stove is cold. The daily
maintenance is limited, but once a year the stove should get thorough maintenance. The
combustion chamber should be cleaned for ashes and soot and the door hinges and the closing
mechanism should be lubricated with copper grease and tightened if necessary.
The surface is maintained by brushing it with a soft, long-haired brush or a dust brush. Always
remember: only when the stove is cold.
Jointings can look okay, but they collapse under the heat and thereby lose the ability to keep the
stove sealed. Jointings should be changed as needed as it is important to good combustion and a
clean window that the stove is sealed.
Insulation in the combustion chamber that are broken or worn can easily be changed as they are
loosely fixed. The material used is called Vermiculite and is a porous, but very suitable insulation
material. It has no effect on the stove’s efficiency that the insulation cracks. However, it should be
changed when the wear surpasses half of the original thickness or when corners break off.
Painting the stove with Senotherm-spray can cover spots or small scratches. Larger damages
needs to be ground with fine steel wool, vacuumed and then sprayed. The can has to be shaken
vigorously and then sprayed on at a distance of 15-20 cm (remember to cover glass and handles).
It is very important that the stove is not in use and completely cold before you use the spray due to
the fire hazard. In order to keep the stove’s varnished surfaces looking nice for years to come you
should try to avoid touching the varnished surfaces when the stove is hot.
Glass normally does not need any maintenance apart from cleaning. This is most easily done by
using TermaTech’s glass cleaner.
Original parts which need to be changed due to wear can be found at your dealer. Because of fit
etc. only original parts from termaTech should be used.
Right to claim compensation for defective product is under current law. When stating
deviations the use of the product must be suspended immediately and the dealer must be
contacted. The right to claim compensation implies correct use of the wood-burning stove. Spare
parts and wearing parts like Vermiculite, glass, jointings and handles are not covered by the
guarantee as they are worn with use. These parts can be changed and bought as spare parts from
your dealer.
10. Malfunctions
If problems should occur with the use of the stove the cause can possibly be found below. If not,
then you are always welcome to contact your dealer.
The stove is difficult to control – it burns too fast: If the stove is new, then check that the
directions have been followed. If the stove is more than 1 year old or if it has been used heavily,
then the jointings may need to be changed. If the jointings sit for too long the heat makes them
lose their ability to keep the stove sealed. Check your firewood, if it is too dry it may burn too
fast/powerfully.
