changed if needed. Also check the 

seal on the door glass for 

tightness and seal integrity.

  

Shutdown: 

If the stove is to be unused for a 

prolonged period of time, for 

instance over the summer months, 

the stove and chimney should be 

fully cleaned and a light oil like 

“WD40” applied to all moving parts 

and all surfaces within the stove 

to displace moisture. The damper 

may be left slightly open to 

facilitate a little air movement 

through the stove and avoid 

moisture build up. Avoid excess 

opening of the damper as this will 

result in excess heat loss through 

the stove up the chimney. After a 

prolonged period being unused, 

inspect the chimney before use to 

ensure no blockage has occurred. 

Also ensure that the air vent to 

the room of the stove is clear. 

 

     

Trouble shooting 

NOTE

: Excessive fume 

emission to the room must 

not be tolerated. 

 

Fire burns very rapidly and 

refuelling periods are not being met: 

1 Chimney draught is very high, 
chimney damper may be required.  

2 Fuel load too small for damper    
setting. 

3 Door seals are worn. 

4 Adjust the damper to a lower               
setting for proper fire control. 

Fire will not burn properly: 

1 Chimney draught is too low  

2 Damper is closed 

3 Chimney height too low, 

flue/chimney seals leaking 

4 Chimney blocked, damaged 

5 Ash covering all air ways into 
firebox 

6 Fuel is wet 

7 No permanent air vent present in 
room. 

Stove emits fumes: 

 1 Chimney blocked 

 2 Door seals require replacing 

 3 Excess down drafts in chimney 

 4 Chimney draughts below 25Pa when 

warm. 

 5 Extractor fan affecting stove. 

 

Some/all radiators not heating: 

1 Check that the fire is burning at 

full output  

2 Check that the pipe stat for the 

heating is not set too high or too 

low. (Typical range of 

temperatures 55*C-60*C) 

3 Check if the system needs 

balancing and that the radiators 

are turned on. Check that a system 

link isn’t preventing flow to the
