Safety
NOTE: As with all solid fuel appliances, a carbon monoxide detector should be
purchased for use in the room. All solid fuel appliances produce considerably more
carbon monoxide in normal use than oil or gas appliances, but the general ‘smell’ of the
smoke or exhaust is much stronger and more easily detected by a healthy person.
•
Always use your appliance with the door shut and look for tell-tale signs of excessive
leakage: smoke stains above the fireplace, smoke emitting around the door when running,
strong smell of soot upstairs etc.
•
Check the seals at the joints annually and replace the fire cement as required. Check
especially the joint of the flue pipe to the chimney register plate, hairline cracks are OK, but
lumps of cement missing produce a bad joint. A proprietary jointing compound should be
used here, as it is far superior to a cement and rope seal.
•
Never block air vents either internally or externally.
•
Use the supplied glove to reload the stove.
•
In the event of a chimney fire, close the door and shut the air vent right down. If possible
throw ½ cup of coarse table salt onto the fire.
•
Never modify parts or fit parts to the appliance that are not recommended by the
manufacturer.
•
Never use this appliance in the same flue as another appliance.
•
The surface of a wood burning stove gets extremely hot in normal use. When using the stove
in situations where children or aged and/or infirm persons are present, a fireguard must be
used to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be manufactured in
accordance with BS 8423:2002.
Warranty
All our stoves are covered by a five year metalwork warranty.
(This is subject to the correct fuel
having been used and not overloading or over aerating the stove.)
The five year warranty covers the stove body only and does not include consumable items such as
grates, vermiculite panels, baffles, log guards, door rope and glass.
Any warranty claims should be addressed to your original supplier and accompanied with
the date of purchase and serial number of the appliance.
