DEFRA Stove Installation and User Guide
Never leave the appliance unattended for an extended length of time
with the door(s) open.
Prior to lighting the stove for the first time, please check with the
installer that:
• Installation and all building work is complete. (Refer to the installation
guide.)
• The chimney is sound, has been swept and is free from obstruction.
• Building Regulations and any local by-laws have been followed during
installation.
• All firebox liner panels and throat plate are in place.
• The chimney draw has been checked and is within specification
(between 0.1mb to 0.2mb, or 10-20 pascals). This ensures your stove
will operate predictably and efficiently.
• A Carbon Monoxide detector is correctly installed in the same room
as the appliance.
Ensure that you have read and understood these instructions before
lighting the fire.
Our YouTube channel www.youtube.com/user/aradastoves features a
collection of videos designed to help you get the best from your Arada
stove.
Always wear suitable protective fire gloves when refuelling your stove,
such as the Arada glove supplied with your stove.
We recommend that you light a small fire for the first few days of use
to cure the paint and allow the castings to relax. During this process the
paint surface may smoke briefly, and you may smell a slight odour for an
hour or so. The vapour is harmless and should not be confused with fume
emissions, however, it is advisable to keep the area well ventilated until
the vapour disperses.
