Fuel Overloading
The maximum amount of fuel specified in this manual should
not be exceeded, overloading can cause excess smoke.
6.8 Do not burn continuously with the door open.
7. Burning Tips
7.1 Fuel Quality (Wood)
Use wood with a moisture content of less than 20%.
Seasoned logs have the bark beginning to lift and peel away
and cracks radiating from the centre. They feel lighter than
fresh cut wood of a similar size and sound hollow when
struck against each other. Logs should not feel damp or
have moss and fungal growths.
Symptoms related to wet wood:
— Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well.
— Smoke and small flames.
— Dirty glass and/or firebricks.
— Rapid creosote build-up in the chimney.
— Low heat output.
— Short burn times, excessive fuel consumption and
blue/grey smoke from the chimney.
Run at a high temperature for a short period each day
to avoid large build-ups of tars and creosote within
the appliance and the flue system. Use Stovax Protector
chimney cleaner to reduce this problem.
8. Chimney Sweeping
8.1 To maintain safe and efficient use of the appliance, the
chimney/flue must be inspected and swept at least once a
year by a qualified chimney sweep*.
If the appliance is used continuously throughout the year,
or it is used to burn wood, more frequent sweeping is
recommended.
The best time to have the chimney swept is at the start of
the heating season.
8.2 The chimney, any connecting flue pipe and the appliance
flue ways, if incorporated, must be regularly cleaned.
8.3 Ensure adequate access for cleaning where it is not possible
to sweep through the chimney.
8.4 If the chimney is believed to have previously served an open
fire it must be swept a second time within a month of regular
use after installation.
9. Annual Service
9.1 Before the start of the heating season strip, inspect and
clean the appliance as detailed:
—Allow appliance to cool.
—Remove all internal parts. Take care handling firebricks (if
applicable) as they can become fragile after a period of use.
—Sweep the appliance chimney/flue at this point if
necessary.
—Vacuum clean any remaining ash and debris from the
inside of the appliance. Stovax offer a filter/collection
attachment for vacuum cleaners to protect them from fire
ash: Ash Clean (Stovax Part No. 2091).
—Check the parts for any damage. Replace any damaged
parts using only genuine replacements parts.
— Check and clean the firebricks (if applicable) with a soft
brush.
Some surface damage will occur during use. The life of the
bricks will depend on the type of fuels burnt and the level of
use. Replace damaged bricks as soon as possible.
— Re-fit cleaned internal parts.
9.2 On appliances with printed glass do not use cleaning
agents that have a high alkaline or acidic content, for
example Stovax Gel Cleaner, these are aggressive
cleaning agents designed to be used with heavily
stained clear glass.
On printed glass surfaces, only use Stovax Glass
Cleaner (Stovax No.4103) which is better formulated for
this application.
— Before applying a cleaning agent remove any dust and
loose soot with a damp cloth.
— Use an appropriate glass cleaner. Apply the cleaning fluid
to a cloth before rubbing onto the glass.
Apply carefully and do not apply excessively. Try to
prevent any run off which could soak into the rope seals
around the edge of the glass.
Soot can also contain acidic particles that can cause
corrosive damage to printed glass.
— Remove dirt with a moist cloth and buff dry.
— Before relighting the appliance ensure the glass is fully
dried.
If the rope seal has absorbed excess cleaning agent
it is advisable to replace the rope as soon as possible to
preserve the printed finish of the glass.
9.3 Some types of wood and solid fuel can cause a white
residue to form on the glass.
If this occurs it should be cleaned off at least once a
week during periods of heavy usage.
If the liquid cleaning agents recommended do not
remove this residue use a dry cleaning pad which will
help remove these white marks.
9.4 Check door rope seal and replace if required.
