Often, with use and over time, subtle earth tones of
brown, red, and yellow appear on the soapstone.
This is a natural reaction in the soapstone. Surface
or hairline fractures may appear in the stone after a
stove has been used. Such changes are normal and
do not affect the operation or the integrity of the
stove and do not require replacement. If you
observe a completely broken stone, contact your
dealer for service.

Exterior cast iron parts are either painted with black,
high-temperature stove paint or porcelainized with
an enamel finish in various colors.
Use black, high-temperature stove paint (satin black
by Stovebright
®
) to touch up and maintain the
original appearance of painted cast iron. Use a
damp sponge to wipe clean. Dry the cast iron
thoroughly to prevent rusting.
Enamel castings can be cleaned with a standard
glass cleaner. With time and use, a very fine, subtle
network of crazed lines may appear seemingly
beneath the surface of the enamel. Crazing is a
natural predictable process and does not represent
a flaw.
