6.0 Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning the glass
Jøtul I 18 is equipped with top draught (air wash). Through the
air vent air is sucked in above the fireplace and washed down
along the inside of the glass. This system reduces the buildup of
soot deposits on the glass.
Still, some soot will always stick to the glass, but the quantity will
depend on the local draught conditions and adjustment of the
draught vent. Most of the soot layer will normally be burned off
when the draught vent is opened all the way and a fire is burning
briskly in the fireplace.
Good advice! For normal cleaning, moisten a paper towel with
warm water and add some ash from the burn chamber. Rub it
over the glass and then clean the glass with clean water. If it is
necessary to clean the glass more thoroughly we recommend a
glass cleaner (follow the instructions for use on the bottle).
6.2 Ash removal
• Use a drawer (or similar) and scrape the ashes out, but always
allow some ash to remain as a protective layer in the bottom
of the insert.
Use of the Ash Solution (Optional Equipment)
1. The grate is designed to keep the wood ashes bed remaining
on the fire bottom in a closed position.
2. When the time has come to remove the ash, push/pull the
lever until the grate is empty of ash. The grate is hinged in
a groove at the left side, and should be raised up by means
of the "cold handle" inserted on to the pivot placed on the
right hand side of the grate. The grate and the handle will
then lean against the left sideplate while the ash pail is
being emptied.
Also see description on how to handle ashes below «3.1 Fire
preventive measures».
6.3 Cleaning and soot removal
Soot deposits may build up on the internal surfaces of the stove
during use. Soot is a good insulator and will therefore reduce the
stove's heat output. If soot deposits accumulate when using the
product, they can be easily removed by using a soot remover.
In order to prevent a water and tar layer from forming in the
fireplace you should regularly allow the fire to burn hot in order
to remove the layer.
An annual internal cleaning is necessary to get the best heating
effect from the product. It is a good idea to do this in connection
with the sweeping of the chimney and flue pipes.
6.4 Sweeping of flue pipes to the
chimney
The simplest way to clean the flue pipe is to remove both
baffle plates and sweep through the door of the stove. See «7.0

6.5 Control of the stove
Jøtul recommends that you personally control your stove carefully
after sweeping/cleaning. Check all visible surface areas for cracks.
Also check that all joints are sealed and that the gaskets are
in the correct position. Any gaskets showing signs of wear or
deformation must be replaced.
Thoroughly clean the gasket grooves, apply ceramic glue
(available from your local Jøtul dealer), and press the gasket well
into place. The joint will dry quickly.
6.6 Exterior maintenance
Painted products may change colour after several years usage.
The surface should be cleaned and brushed free of any loose
particles before new paint is applied.
Enamelled products must only be cleaned with a clean, dry cloth.
Do not use water and soap. Any stains can be removed with a
cleaning fluids (Oven cleaner etc.).
