FIrIng Manual – Wood

Your ﬁrst heating session

When you light up for the ﬁrst time, you must do it carefully as all materials must be introduced to the

heat gradually. The lacquer will be fully hardened after the insert has been light up for the ﬁrst time. The

door must be opened carefully; otherwise there is a risk that the seals will stick to the lacquer. In addition

the lacquer may initially give off an unpleasant odour, so make sure that the room is well ventilated.

Tips about fuel:

Approved fuel types

The insert is EN approved for combustion of wood only. It is recommended to use dried chopped wood

with a water content of a maximum of 20%. Stoking a ﬁre with wet wood results in soot, environmental

problems, and a less efﬁcient fuel economy.

Recommended wood types

All types of wood, for instance birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, conifers, and fruit trees can be used as fuel in

your insert. The great difference is not in the fuel value (J/kg), but in the weight of the wood types per

cubic metre. Since beech weighs more per cubic metre than for instance common spruce, it will take more

common spruce to produce the same amount of heat that you would get from a cubic metre of beech.

Banned fuel types

It is not allowed to stoke a ﬁre with the following:

• Printed matter

• Plywood, plastic

• Rubber

• Fluid fuels

• Rubbish such as milk cartons, lacquered wood or impregnated wood.

The reason that you should not apply any of the above is that during combustion they develop substances

that are health hazardous and harmful to the environment. These substances could also damage your

insert and chimney, rendering the product warranty void.

Storage of wood

A water content of a maximum of 20% is achieved by storing the wood for a minimum of one year,

preferably two years, outdoors under a lean-to. Wood stored indoors has a tendency to become too

dry and combust too quickly. However, it might be advantageous to store fuel for lighting a ﬁre indoors

for a few days prior to use.

Recommended dimensions

The dimensions of the fuel are important to good combustion. The dimensions should be as follows:

Fuel type Length in cm Diameter in cm

Wood for kindling a ﬁre (ﬁnely chopped) 25-30 2-5

Chopped wood

25-30 7-9

Opening and closing the door

Always hold the handle in the middle when opening and closing the door to avoid putting uneven pres

sure on the door lift mechanism.
