Chimney Fires
If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not occur. However, if a chimney fire does
occur turn the air control setting to the minimum, and tightly close the doors of the stove. This should cause the
chimney fire to go out in which case the control should be kept at the minimum setting until the fire in the stove
has gone out. The chimney and flue ways should then be cleaned. If the chimney fire does not go out when the
above action is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately.
After a chimney fire the chimney should be carefully examined for any damage. Expert advice should be sought if
necessary
Permanent air vent
The stove requires a permanent air vent to the room or a direct connection to the closed air port at the rear of the
stove. This is to provide adequate air supply in order for the stove to operate safely and efficiently.
In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer may have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the
room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This air vent should not under any circumstances
be shut off or sealed.
Aerosols
Aerosols are flammable and therefore dangerous to use around a lit stove. Do not use aerosols sprays near your lit
stove. The use of any aerosol is dangerous and care must be taken in handling aerosols.
