Only dry well seasoned wood should be burnt on this
appliance as burning wet unseasoned wood will give rise to
heavy tar deposits. For the same reason hard wood is better
than soft wood. Burning wet unseasoned wood will also result
in considerably reduced outputs. The wood should be cut and
split and then left to season in a well ventilated dry place for
at least one year but preferably two years before use.
Ensure that the peat is well dried before use. Burning wet
peat will give rise to heavy tar deposits and reduced outputs.
At first you may find it helpful to try several fuels to find the
most suitable. If you are unable to obtain the fuel you want,
ask your supplier or an approved fuel distributor to suggest
an alternative.
This stove is not designed to burn household waste. Liquid
fuels are not to be used on this appliance.
NOTE: This appliance has been approved by HETAS as a
continuous operating appliance for burning smokeless fuel.

GENERAL
FUELS
Before lighting the fire, check with the installer that the work
and checks described in the installation instructions have been
carried out correctly and that the chimney has been swept, is
sound, and free from any obstructions.
Do not light the fire before the boiler and heating system has
been filled with water, as this can cause damage to the boiler.
WARNING: There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the
same room as this appliance as this can cause the appliance to
emit smoke and fumes into the room.
If the appliance is fitted in place of an open fire then the
chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear
any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in
combustion between the appliance and the open fire.
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is
alight. There is a risk of explosion or flash ignition of the spray.
When using the fire in situations where children or infirm
people are present please use a fire guard to prevent
