Aarrow fires are designed so that the flue can be swept through the appliance once the throat plate has been 
removed. Access for cleaning should also be incorporated in the chimney (i.e. a soot door). 
 

Door Glass 

The door glass should remain clear during normal daytime burning. However under certain conditions-such as 
burning at a low rate with damp fuel, or overnight burning of wood, the glass may become somewhat blackened. 
To remedy this, operate the appliance at a fast rate. Alternatively open the door and clean the inside face of the 
glass with a damp cloth or with glass cleaner (available from fire stockists) taking care not to burn fingers. A 
piece of cloth moistened with vinegar and dipped in wood ash - not coal ash - will provide a good soft scourer to 
remove the soot without scratching the glass. 
 

Other Surfaces 

The outside finish of the appliance is a durable high temperature paint. It is best cleaned by brushing down with 
a clean shoe brush. Do not allow moisture to remain on the appliance whilst cold or surface rust may form. 
 

Outer Finish 

The high temperature paint should not require attention for some time, depending on use. The hotter the fire 
burns the sooner repainting will be necessary. Aerosol tins of paint are available for complete refurbishing. 
Before repainting make sure that the fire is out and is cold. 
 

 

Remove the door glass and gilt trim. 

 

Lightly wire brush, or rub with wire wool, the body of the appliance to remove any loose paint powder. 

 

Mask or remove items such as brasswork, thermostat knobs 

 

Any adjacent brickwork, mantelpiece, hearth, etc., should be carefully masked for quite a distance around the 
appliance. (this precaution is to prevent discoloration of the surrounding brickwork, wallpaper etc.). 

 

Re-spray in a well-ventilated area - avoid breathing the vapour. 

 

When the paint is dry refit door glass and any other parts previously removed. 

 

Leave the appliance for eight hours before re-lighting. Burn slowly for the first four hours, then build up heat 
gradually to cure the paint. 

 

Note: Use only genuine Aarrow touch-up spray as some paints interact. This could ruin the finish and 
invalidate the guarantee. 

 
 
 

16. SAFETY 

 
 
A fireguard conforming to BS 6539 should be used in the presence of children and old/or infirm people. If the 
appliance is used with the fire door open, a spark guard conforming to BS 3248 should be fitted. 

Do not use aerosol sprays near the appliance under fire 
Do not fit an extractor fan in the same room as the appliance. 
Fire cement is caustic and prolonged contact with the skin should be avoided. 

 

Aarrow Fires Ltd will not be responsible for any consequential or incidental loss, or injury however 
caused. 

 

USE OF SPARE PARTS OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED BY AARROW FIRES LTD WILL 

INVALIDATE THE APPLIANCE GUARANTEE.
