Maintenance

Gasket Replacement

The cast iron fuel loading and ash removal doors of your ENERGY KING Wood/Coal Furnace are

equipped with gaskets to ensure safe operation and an airtight seal. When these gaskets become

worn or damaged, you will need to replace them.

To replace the gaskets you will need 3/4-inch, high temperature rope gasket, available from your

ENERGY KING dealer or hardware store.

1. Remove the door and lay it face down on a

clean, flat surface.

2. Find the ends of the gasket and pull it off.

3. Using a screwdriver, remove any excess

gasket cement from the gasket channel.

4. If desired, a small drop of gasket cement

may be applied to the corners of the gasket

channel.

5. Lay the new door gasket in the channel,

cutting off any excess gasket rope.

6. Reattach the door. If gasket cement was

applied, keep the door closed until the

cement has fully dried.

Routine Maintenance

Please use the following timeline as a guide for determining how much maintenance your

ENERGY KING Wood/Coal Furnace requires to operate at peak performance. Failure to clean and

maintain this Furnace as indicated can result in poor performance and safety hazards.

Please use Appendix D: Purchase & Service Record to keep a record of your maintenance and

service practices. In the event of a warranty claim, we may request a copy of this record.

Daily

Until a pattern of cleaning requirement is established, inspect and, if necessary, clean the following

components daily:

 Fuel Supply, refilling as necessary.

 Flue Pipes, including joints and seals, should

be inspected to ensure that smoke and flue

gases are not drawn in and circulated by the

air-circulation system.

 Ash removal pan should be emptied and

cleaned regularly. Ash content is a good

indicator of fuel efficiency and quality. High

quality fuel will produce less ash than lower

quality fuel. Never allow ash to build up to

the level of the grates.

Inspect flue pipes, joints and seals regularly

to ensure that smoke and flue gases are not

drawing into the home.
