Door Catch
Over time the rope seal in the door will become compressed. It may therefore be necessary to adjust
the door catch to maintain the door seal. To adjust the catch, slacken the two set screws on the catch
bar and adjust the position of the catch bar as necessary.
Air Valves
Over time the sealing face of the air valves may wear. This will reduce the effectiveness of the controls.
To replace a worn valve, remove the air valve cassette, lift off the worn valve and replace with new.
Annual Service
Hunter Stoves Group recommend that this appliance is serviced annually, preferably prior to the start of
the heating season, thus avoiding any delay in receiving replacement components, should you need
them. If you feel unable to undertake this task, Hunter Stoves recommend that you contact the
installation engineer for advice.
Chimney and Flue ways
It is important that the chimney, flue ways and any connecting flue pipe are swept regularly. This
means at least once a year for smokeless fuels and at least twice a year for wood and other fuels. The
baffle will need to be removed from its supports in order to sweep the chimney (see assembly
instructions). Only wire-
centred sweeps’ brushes fitted with a guide wheel should be used. If it is not
possible to sweep all parts of the chimney through the appliance, ensure there is adequate access to
cleaning doors. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire, then the chimney should be swept one
month after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in
combustion between the stove and the open fire.
Remove all the internal components:
Clean them with a soft brush and inspect them for damage.
Sweep the chimney/flue system if necessary.
Clean down the internal surfaces of the appliance using a scraper or wire brush.
Inspect these surfaces for damage/corrosion. If corrosion or damage is found, we advise that you
consult with your installer about rectification/repair.
Brush out or vacuum the inside of the appliance and re-fit the internal components.
Inspect the Glass and clean with a non-abrasive cleaner if required
Painted Finish
Brush down the outer surface with a dry soft brush or dry microfiber cloth only and touch up the paint if
necessary. Burn the appliance at a low rate, after maintenance, to allow any new seals, paint or glue
cure properly. The appliance may emit unpleasant odours during this process, please ensure the room
is well ventilated.
The paint can be ordered through our website
