Ash Management and Ash Removal
1)
If ash management is deficient, the HEATMOR™ will not perform to its optimum.
It is time
well spent to ensure proper ash management. In the long run, the operator will be paid back many
times over in higher efficiency and better performance. Improper ash management results in
one unfavorable condition starting a chain reaction of additional problems.
ashes should be removed
before the ash pan is completely full.
2) You do not need to allow
the
wood pellets in the firepot to burn out to remove the ashes, the ashes
will drop into the ashpan below the firepot automatically as the wood burns into ashes. When all fuel
has been burned out of the ashes, they will be a gray and black color and very light. If some unburnt
pellets are in the ashpan, adjust the auger feed setting see “Loading Wood Pellets into the Heatmor”
3) It is not necessary to rake or move the ashes in the firepot. They will naturally flow into the ash pan
as new pellets are augered into the firepot and the ash is light enough to be blown out of the firepot.
4)
it is recommended to remove ashes once per day.
Choose a time of day and faithfully do the ash
removal chore on that same time, every day.
5)
a particle mask, gloves and protective equipment should be worn when removing ashes.
6) When removing ashes using the integrated ash pan, immediately dispose of the ashes into a larger,
sealed, metal container. Replace the ash pan under the firepot in the firebox after each use.
handle
the ash pan with care
as it will be very hot. Be sure to seal the ash pan door after each use, making
an airtight seal. You may need to remove ashes from under the firebox when the ash pan is not in
place; if you need to do this it may help to remove the lower housing panel and place the ash pan under
the opening.
7) Removed ashes should be stored in a
steel
container, sealed with a
steel
tight fitting lid, and
placed in an area free of combustible materials for a few days, to allow the ashes to completely cool
before being disposed.
Ash Pan
Principles
The ash pan is a storage reservoir for completely burned ashes. A reasonable amount of ashes (two to four
gallons) should be removed during each ash removal. The ash pan is replaceable.
handle the ash pan with
care as it will be very hot.
Removal and Replacement of the ash pan
1) Let the unit cool down.
2) Disconnect electrical and turn off breaker.
3) Remove the ash pan from the firebox and replace.
4) Reverse the above.
