Heating operation
We recommend using safety gloves during operation, since the operating
elements become hot. Open the door slowly – this way no turbulences de-
velop, which let flue gases esca.
Flue exhaust/heating during transitional periods
The
IRON DOG
needs sufficient chimney draught for drawing in the com-
bustion air and exhausting the flue gases. It diminishes with rising outside
temperatures and this can lead to problems to start a fire. When outside
temperatures are over 15°C, please check the chimney draught. (for exam-
ple open the door and keep a burning fire lighter at the entry of the flame
channel – flame and flue gases must visibly take off). In case of too little
draught first light kindling and add burning wood when the draught has
been created.

FIREWOOD AND HEATING POWER
The combustion process in our devices has been optimized to enhance
their performance and reduce emissions. You can support our efforts to
protect our environment by respecting the following recommendations for
low-emission heating: Use only brown coal briquettes and dry, natural wood
with a residual humidity factor below 20%, or wood briquettes according to
DIN EN 14961-3, Class A1, length >14 cm (5.51 in), diameter >8 cm (3.15
in).
