Glass
Wet wood, unsatisfactory chimney draft, and wrong use of the stove can leave soot stains on the glass pane.
They can easily be removed using a damp cloth that you dip in cold ash and rub on the sooty glass. Special
cleaning agents are also available to remove soot from glass, e.g. the Aduro Easy Clean pad. The pad
neither scratch nor damage the glass and is for multiple usage. Water or other cleaning agents are not
necessary.
It is common maintenance to tighten the glass fittings and the hinges shortly after the stove has been
installed as well as to check if the gaskets are properly placed.
Gaskets
With time, gaskets around glass and door will wear. We recommend that you inspect them regularly. If
leakages appear, they must be replaced.
Handle
If the handle screw needs to be loosened or retightened, loosen the grub screw inside the door first. This is
tightened again when the handle is tightened.
Ashes
Empty the ashpan before it gets completely full. Always leave a layer of ashes in the stove because it
insulates and makes it easier to light a fire.
Cleaning the stove
The stove's surface is treated with a heat-resistant Senotherm® paint, which will stay at its best just by being
vacuumed with a small, soft mouthpiece or dusted with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use spirit or other solvents, as
they will remove the paint.
Do not clean the stove with water. If the stove is exposed to moisture, the stove
may develop rust.
The inside of the stove and the flue pipe can be cleaned through the door or alternatively through the
cleaning aperture in the flue pipe/chimney. The upper fireproof tile (the baffle plate) can be removed. To
allow free access to the top of the stove and the flue pipe, remove the baffle plate in steel. The flue pipe can
be removed from the stove and cleaned. Cleaning of the inside of the stove and the flue pipe should be
undertaken at least once a year, or more frequently if necessary, depending on how often the stove is used.
This work can also be carried out by the chimney sweep or your local Aduro GO partner.
Repairing the surface
Aduro stoves are painted with a heat-resistant paint that can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees. If
the surface of the stove gets scratched or worn, it can easily be renewed using this type of paint. Everybody
can repair the surface and obtain a perfect result. The paint is available in black metallic from your local
dealer or at www.aduroshop.com.
