9.3 Soot build-up on the HE smoke sliding
deflector
(Drawing 26):
During the chimney
cleaning, be sure to remove any creosote or soot
build-up over the HE smoke deflector. The build-
up of soot on the deflector can prevent the flow of
smoke.
10.1 Firescreen:
The optional firescreen is
simply put in place in the front of the insert. Just
tilt it a little and slip it into the opening.
Integrated clips will keep it in place.
11.1 Anti-smoke flap installation (optional)::
See details on
Drawing 27.
12.1 Excessive humidity and condensation:
In
winter, high humidity levels inside the house can
cause chimney problems such as condensation,
and ice build-up eventually dripping into the
fireplace. In extreme cases, the condensation
water can even infiltrate the chimney insulation.
To avoid these problems, it is necessary to
maintain a 30-35% humidity level inside the
house.
