FIRING IN THE SPRING OR AUTUMN
In the spring/autumn transition period, where there is less need for heating, we recommend you light the stove “top down”
once, perhaps adding just two pieces of wood to ensure that the combustion chamber lining burns clean again.
THE FUNCTION OF THE CHIMNEY
The chimney is the wood-burning stove’s motor; its performance determines how well your stove will work. The draught
in the chimney creates negative pressure in the wood-burning stove. The negative pressure draws the smoke out of the
stove and takes in air through the combustion air damper to fuel the combustion process. Combustion air is also used for
the airwash system that keeps the glass clear of soot.
The draught in the chimney is created by the difference in temperature inside and outside the chimney. The higher the
difference in temperature, the better the draught. This is why it is important that the chimney reaches operating tem-
perature before you reduce the damper settings to restrict combustion in the stove (a brickwork chimney will take longer
to reach operating temperature than a steel chimney). It is very important that the operating temperature is reached as
quickly as possible on days when the draught in the chimney is poor due to unfavourable wind and weather conditions.
You need to get a few flames going as quickly as possible. Chop the wood extra thin; use an extra fire lighter etc.
¬ After longer periods without use, you must check the chimney flue for blockages.
¬ You can connect several units to the same chimney. You should however first check the relevant regulations in this
respect.
USING THE STOVE IN VARIOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS
The way the wind affects the chimney can have a big impact on how your stove reacts under various wind loads; you may
need to adjust the airflow to achieve good combustion. Fitting a damper in the flue pipe may also help, as it will allow you
to regulate the draught under changing wind loads.
Fog and mist can also have a big impact on chimney draught; you may need to use other settings for the combustion air to
achieve good combustion.
GENERAL NOTES
PLEASE NOTE! Parts of the wood-burning stove, especially the outer surfaces, become hot during use. Due care should be
exercised.
¬ Never empty ashes into a flammable container. Ashes can contain glowing embers long after you finish operating the
stove.
¬ When the stove is not in use you can close the dampers to avoid a draught through the stove.
¬ If the stove has not been used for some time, you should check the flue passageways for potential blockages before
relighting.
NOTE: Never place flammable material in the radiation zone of the stove!
CHIMNEY FIRE
In the event of a chimney fire, keep the stove door, ash drawer, and all dampers on the stove closed. In an emergency, call
the fire service.
¬ We recommend that you get a chimney sweep to check the chimney before using the stove again.
