when it does eventually require re-finishing, black heat resistant paint in spray cans can be purchased 

from most hardware stores but we would suggest using “Calfire flat black paint”. – Do not use regular 

paint which is not high temperature resistant. After prolonged periods of not using the fire, the stove 

and flue system should be checked for blockages prior to relighting. We recommend regular servicing 

and safety checks are carried out by a qualified engineer. There must be no unauthorised modification 

of the appliance. Use only replacement parts recommended by the manufacturer. 

Baffle Plate Removal  – If you have not installed an access hatch into the first length of flue pipe and 

need to remove the baffle plate to gain access for cleaning, you can do this by following the below 

steps. 

1 – Remove the log retainer and base fire brick 

2 – Remove the side and back fire bricks  

3 – Unbolt the baffle plate – The baffle plate is held in with 2 x 10mm nuts that fix into a thread, which 

is wound into the body of the stove. You only need to remove the nut to slide the baffle plate away but 

sometimes these are stiff and will bring the thread with it but should easily wind back in place. Ensure 

the flat heat resistant fire rope seal is in good condition before reattaching the baffle. If the seal is not 

connecting with the stove body, excess air will spill into the stove, making the air wash and secondary 

burn less effective.   

MODELS WITH MIRROR GLASS: THIS GLASS HAS A SPECIAL COATING, DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE 

MATERIAL TO CLEAN THE GLASS. Just use a clean cloth with warm water when the stove is cold, if you 

clean the glass when it is still warm the glass can “craze”, crazing can also occur if incorrect fuels are 

burnt on the stove, or fuels with impurities in them. If fire bricks have just split, they do not need 

replacing. The bricks only need replacing when they have fully crumbled away exposing the stoves rear 

or sides. Fire bricks are fully heat resistant but can easily split if struck with a log 

 

 

The main body of your stove is guaranteed for 7 years. This does not include broken glass, Crazed glass, 

fire bricks, door seals, paint and over-firing. Incorrect use or installation not carried out by a registered 

HETAS installer will void the guarantee. The only exceptions will be if the install has been signed off by
