Instructions for use
5.4 HEATING ECONOMICALLY
The most environmentally-friendly and economic way of heating with wood is to have
your ! re hot but calm. The ash should appear to glow a soft red-orange and should not
glow like a blacksmith’s ! re. Fires like that burn quickly and intensely, leaving little time
for complete combustion.
Your appliance is at its most economical when:
• Using dry and clean wood (as described further in Chapter 6).
• Always ensure even combustion. Stoke with the primary air regulator closed.
To do this, place the combustion air supply slider in the centre position.
• The bed of the ! re should be homogeneous, and the ! re must have easy access to
air. Position the blocks of wood (loosely and evenly) horizontally on the bed of ash,
so that they are separate and several centimetres away from the walls.
5.5 CLEANING THE WINDOW
After several burning hours, a light deposit may form on the inner side of the window.
Once the appliance has cooled down, this deposit can be removed using glass cleaner
or ceramic hob cleaner.
