Ventilation  

 

For good combustion in the stove, it is necessary to provide the room in which the 
stove is located with good ventilation. Poor combustion can be caused by poor 
ventilation in the house. Especially in modern, airtight houses this can happen. Also 
in rooms where (electric) ventilation is present, bad combustion can occur more 
easily. By applying/installing the right ventilation, these problems can be prevented. 
Good ventilation at the stove is compulsory. 

The air inlet must have a total net surface area of 100 cm². This area must be 
increased if there is an (electrical) extractor or other heating systems in the same 
room (e.g. extractor hood or wood-burning stove).  

It is possible to connect an external air intake on all Duroflame pellet stoves. With the 
use of this external air intake the pellet stove uses outside air for combustion. The 
combustion of the stove will then no longer be influenced by the room ventilation. Ask 
your dealer about the possibilities. 

 

The air inlets listed above must guarantee a minimum capacity of 50m³/hour. 
The air supply may not be blocked under any circumstances. 

 

  Starting a pellet stove  

 

4.2.1  Starting for the first time  

 

Attention

! When using the stove for the first time, please observe the following 

advice: 

  The curing process of the lacquers is only completed after a few fires. During 

this curing process, vapours and odours may be released, which will not be 
released later. 

  Operate  the  stove  at  medium  power  for  the  first  few  times  so  that  all  the 

mechanical parts can settle and the varnishes can harden. This will increase 
the service life of the stove. 

  Keep children away from the stove, the fumes released may be harmful to 

their  health.  Adults  should  also  be  careful  with  these  fumes  and  avoid 
inhalation as far as possible.
