RUNNING THE APPLIANCE 

 

RELOAD WITH MORE WOOD 

 

1)

 

Open the spark arrestor. 

2)

 

Rake / break up any existing coals. 

3)

 

Load wood on top of the glowing coals. Better results will 
be achieved by loading several smaller pieces of wood 
rather than one large piece. 

4)

 

Leave the spark arrestor open for 2 minutes to allow the 
wood to catch fire. Once lit, close the spark arrestor.  
 

DO NOT OVERLOAD FIREPLACE WITH FUEL

BURNING TIPS 

 

FUEL QUALITY 

 

Use wood with a moisture content of less than 20%. Logs 
should not feel moist or have moss and fungal growths. 

Symptoms of burning wet wood: 

 

Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well 

 

Smoke and only small flames 

 

Dirty fire bricks 

 

Rapid creosote build-up in the flue/chimney 

 

Low heat output 

 

Short burn times, and blue/grey smoke from the 
flue/chimney outlet 

 

FLUE DRAUGHT 

 

The flue has two main functions: 

1)

 

To safely remove smoke, gases and fumes from the 
appliance. 

2)

 

To provide sufficient draught (suction) in the appliance to 
ensure the fire keeps burning. 

Draught is caused by the rising hot air in the flue when the fire 
has been lit. 

The position, height and size of the flue can affect the 
performance of the flue draught. Refer to installation guide 
for details on flue installation. 

Factors affecting the flue draught include: 

 

Insufficient flue height 

 

Trees or other buildings nearby causing turbulence 

 

High and gusty winds 

 

Outside temperature and weather conditions 

 

Blocked flue 

For advice on the correction of persistent flue problems 
consult your supplier/installer for more detail. 

1.8.

 

ASH REMOVAL 

 

ONLY REMOVE ASH TRAY WHILE FIREPLACE IS INACTIVE. 

Excess ashes should be removed when necessary, placed in a 
non-combustible container and moved outdoors immediately 
to a location clear of combustible materials. 

 

To remove ashtray, use handle cut-out in the ashtray to pull 
up and towards you from underneath the grate lip.

1.9.

 

FLUE FIRE 

 

To prevent flue fires it is recommended that your flue is 
professionally cleaned once per season at a minimum, subject 
to the quality of fuel used.
