Athlone Stove User Guide
Any type of wood is suitable (though hardwood is preferable) provided it is
well seasoned and has a moisture content below 20%. This usually implies that
the timber has been suitably stored to allow moisture to evaporate for at least
9 months in the case of soft wood, and at least 24 months in the case of hard
wood. We recommend that for general burning, wood should be split into logs
of no more than 100mm (4”) diameter.
If when burning wood you see signs of sticky tar inside the appliance or
chimney, your wood is ‘green’ or too wet and requires further seasoning. An
electronic moisture meter can be obtained in order to determine the moisture
content of your wood fuel.
Paper will burn successfully. Burn dry paper only or chimney damage will
occur.
Wet wood must not be used as this will greatly contribute to
the creation of tar and creosote which may, in extreme cases,
run down the chimney in liquid form. This will seriously damage
both the chimney and the appliance and increase the risk of a
chimney fire.
2.2 Solid fuel
If you have chosen a multi/solid fuel stove this will have a cast iron riddling
grate which allows you to burn a wider variety of fuel types. It is important to
ensure that your fuel is intended for use in a stove, modern stoves are designed
for use with current cleaner burning and smokeless fuels.
Arada recommends the use of HETAS approved smokeless fuels which have
been deemed suitable for use on closed appliances including multi fuel stoves,
these are:
Anthracite
Ancit™
Coalite Newflame™
Homefire™
Homefire Ecoal™
Homefire Coals™
Maxibrite™
Phurnacite™
Pureheat™
Supertherm™
Sunbrite™
Taybrite™
For additional advice on fuels, please refer to The Solid Fuel Association
(www.solidfuel.co.uk) or HETAS (www.hetas.co.uk).
3 Before using your stove
Villager stoves are designed to be operated with the fire door(s) closed at all
times, apart from refuelling (when alight) or cleaning (when cold).
