Cleaning the FIREX 600
All Ecoteck products have a combustion chamber made with FIREX 600, a material based on
vermiculite, the result of research and development by Ecoteck. The main features of FIREX 600 is
its resistant to heat, its lightness and its excellent insulating capacities, which improve the combustion
and performance of the stove. During combustion, FIREX 600 turns white, due to an effect called
PYROLYSIS, making the flame clear and shining. If the combustion is regulated in an optimal way, the
FIREX 600 interior always remains clean and white.
The appearance and condition of the FIREX 600 is therefore an indicator of whether the combustion is
good or not.
FIREX 600 LIGHT – EXCELLENT COMBUSTION
