4.4. Burning wood
The best way to control the fire is to completely close the lower air slide, which you
use to get the fire started, and to regulate the air supply with the upper air slide
only. In case the air supply through the upper slide seems insufficient, or if you
would like to fan the fire, you can partially open the lower air slide for a while.
Add extra fuel when necessary. Never add too much fuel. It is best to fill the stove
for one third and to top it up on a regular basis.
Always open the filling door slowly. Before filling up, the charcoal bed should be
carefully spread open. Check whether the coals are glowing enough just behind the
log retainer, so that the added fuel will immediately catch fire. If necessary you can
open the lower air slide for a while.
Open stacking will make the logs
burn very intensely, as the oxy-
gen can easily reach every part of
the fire. This method of stacking
is applied when burning wood for
a short while. Compact stacking
will make the fire burn slower, as
the air can only reach the outer
parts of the fire. This stacking
method is best used when burn-
ing for a longer while.
Low intensity fires cause tar and creosote to deposit in the chimney after a long
period of time. Tar and creosote are highly combustible substances. Thicker layers
of these substances might catch fire when the temperature in the chimney increases
suddenly and steeply. Therefore it is necessary for the fire to regularly burn very
intensely, so that thin layers of tar and creosote immediately disappear.
Low intensity fires also cause tar to deposit on the stove panels and doors.
When it is not too cold outside it is better to let the stove burn intensely for just a
few hours a day.
The fireplace can burn with either open or closed doors. When the doors are left
open, it is recommended to use a spark screen.
4.5. Ash removal
If your fireplace is equipped with an ashtray (optional), it must be emptied before
the ashes reach the lower edge of the combustion grid. With the cold handle sup-
plied, you can tilt the grid upwards and remove the ashtray from the device.
Relatively speaking, burning wood produces little ash and it will not be necessary to
remove it each time daily. Moreover, wood burns better on a bed of ash.
4.6. Extinguishing the fire
Stop fuelling the fire and let it burn out.
Damping a fire by closing the air slides involves the release of noxious gases. You
should let the fire burn out and keep an eye on it as long as it is still glowing.
