Instructions for user
Warning : properly installed and operated this
appliance will not emit fumes into the dwelling.
Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fueling
may occur. Persistant fume emission is dangerous
and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does
persist :
-
open doors and windows to ventilate room,
-
let the fire out and dispose of fuel from the appliance,
-
check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if
required,
-
do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the
fume emission has been identified and corrected. If
necessary seek expert advice.
Note
: It is recommended to use a fireguard in the
presence of children, and also in the presence of old
and/or infirm people
3.1.
Fuel
Recommended fuel :
Coal
Sunbrite (small) - Anthracite (Medium) - Dry Wood
Wood
-
Use hard wood logs which have been cut for at least
two years and stored under shelter.
-
Hardwood has a higher calorific value per cu metre
(oak, ash, maple, birch, elm, beech, etc.).
-
Large logs must be split and cut to the usable length,
before being stored in a sheltered and ventilated
place.
Not recommended as fuel :
-
“green wood”. Green or damp wood reduces stove
efficiency and makes the window, the internal walls
and the flue dirty (soot, tar, etc.).
-
“used timbers”. Burning treated wood (railway
sleepers, telegraph poles, offcuts of plywood or chip
board, pallets, etc.) quickly clogs the flue ways (soot,
tar, etc.), pollutes the environment (pollution and
smell, etc.) and cause the fire to burn too quickly and
overheat.
“Green wood” and “recovered wood” can eventually
cause a chimney fire.
Prohibited fuel :
Any form of bituminous coal or
petroleum based coke.
3.2.
Lighting the stove
-
Ensure that there is enough water in the heating
system (with add-in boiler).
-
Do not light the fire if it is suspected that any part of the
water system is frozen.
-
Use crumpled paper or firelighters and enough
kindling wood to obtain a good fire bed.
-
Set thermostat control in maximum open position.
-
Light the paper through the fuel retainer and close the
loading doors.
-
Once the embers are glowing, load the firebox with
solid fuel and close the doors carefully.
-
Once the fire is burning well, set the thermostat to
desired position.
-
At first lighting, build up heat slowly to allow the
appliance to be correctly “run in”.
Note
:
The body of the stove may emit some fumes and give off
a new paint smell for the first couple of hours. This is
quite normal and you shouldn’t worry about it. Make
sure the room is well ventilated during initial use.
