Routine Maintenance for Longevity

Daily cleaning protocols and inspection schedules to extend the life of your cookstove.

Routine Maintenance for Longevity

A well-maintained stove operates more efficiently and lasts significantly longer than a neglected one.

Ash Removal Protocols

  • Remove ash daily to prevent it from smothering the fire bed.
  • Ensure the grate is clear of debris before adding new fuel.
  • Use a metal scoop to avoid damaging the firebox floor.

Baffle Inspection

  • The baffle redirects heat back into the firebox for better efficiency.
  • Check for cracks or gaps that allow smoke to escape.
  • Replace a damaged baffle to restore secondary combustion efficiency.

Regular cleaning prevents creosote buildup and structural damage.
