Remove residues with a cloth or paper towel.  Wipe over with clean water and rub dry with a clean cloth. Observe the cleaning tips provided by the stove manufacturer.

Tips to keep the glass clean on a wood burning stove

• Wipe down the glass with wet newspaper between fires to keep on top of any blackening of the glass.
• Ensure to keep any air vents open that are required for the air wash system.
• Burn dry, low moisture content wood.
• Never leave the fire to smoulder, which can produce excess smoke and can increase the rate in which the glass starts to blacken.
• Build and maintain fires more towards the back of the stove.
• Always start with kindling when you warm up the stove and the flue.
• Use hardwood logs rather than softwood.
• Make sure the temperature is high to reduce the deposits on your glass.
