Warning - Fume / Smoke emissions
Warning: Properly installed, with a suitable flue or chimney,
operated and maintained correctly, this appliance will not emit
fumes into the dwelling.
Occasional fumes when de-ashing and refuelling may occur.
However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and
must be investigated by a HETAS registered installer.
Stop using the appliance if you smell fumes or see smoke
escaping.
If fume emission does persist, the following immediate actions
should be taken:
• Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
• Let the fire die or extinguish and safely dispose of fuel from
the appliance.
• Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.
Seek expert advice from your HETAS registered installer. Do not
attempt to re-light the fire until the cause of the fume emission
has been identified and corrected.
5.5.1
Refuelling on to a low fire bed
If there is insufficient burning material in the firebed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a
sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will ignite
in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable
kindling to prevent excessive smoke
