I When lighting your fire, open the air control
fully. This will allow both primary and secondary
air to enter the heater. There is one control
only, just under the glass door. (Refer to page
10)
I Stack plenty of dry kindling wood and a
firelighter to establish a good fire quickly. (Refer
to our burning guide for further details)
Please make sure to use heavy gloves when
handling any controls as they can get very hot.
I Add several larger pieces of wood approximately 3kg and 30cm
across once the kindling has burnt to coals. (Approx. 20min)
I Once you start to get a good bed of embers, close the air control by
half. This will close the primary air from the bottom grate and only allow
secondary air to enter from the top of the firebox.
I Add wood as needed, usually just one log at a time. You only need to
have the vent no more then half open to attain optimal convection and
to save on wood usage.
PROLONGED BURNING
I For prolonged burning, establish a good bed of
embers, add larger pieces of wood, or one large
piece (the harder the wood the better), then close the
vent by about 90%. The fireplace will require a small
amount of air to ensure that the wood can continue
to burn
I To get the fire going again, add some kindling and
open the vent fully and continue normal operation.
