Maintenance - Jydepejsen Omega Mode D'emploi

9. Maintenance

Sealing bands and vermiculite plates are wearing parts and should be replaced as needed. How often depends of the use
of the stove - some stove owners have to change the parts every year whereas others replace them every two or three
years. Sealing bands should be replaced when flat and the front door is no longer tight. New sealing bands with glue may
be ordered from your wood-burning stove dealer.
The vermiculite plates should be replaced when they appear worn or have deep scratches revealing the fire chamber steel.
Worn vermiculite plates should be replaced in time as they will otherwise loose their heat reflection and insulation
properties. Movable and mechanical parts should be greased with a heat-resistant lubricant at least every year (locking
mechanism, hinges, etc.)
The stove and the chimney should be checked regularly by a qualified professional to ensure the optimal function of the
stove. It is illegal to make unauthorized changes to wood-burning stoves and doing so will void the warranty and the test
results.
