SUMMER CARE
After your last fire of the season, remove the ashes from your heater and clean it thoroughly inside and out.
Handy Hints
Using cotton gloves when tending the heater will keep your hands clean and prevent any small burns.
Place an open newspaper on the floor in front of the heater to protect the floor covering when adding fuel.
Smoke discharging into the room when the fuel charging door is opened usually indicates that the previous
charge has not completely burned or that there is insufficient draft in the chimney.
If your heater is attached to a good chimney with adequate draft and is operated according to our instructions
you should have years of trouble free comfort.
If, however, you do experience any trouble contact your Valley Comfort dealer. They will need to know the kind
of wood you've been burning, the average size of pieces, the type, condition and size of the flue and whether it is
tile lined. Sketch the heater and flue pipe hook-up to the chimney.
NOTE: Products of combustion can contain carbon monoxide,
especially when the fire is smoldering and starving for air.
To prevent this, do no close the damper too tightly.
