Stove is burning too strong
Possible cause:
• Leak around the door seal
• Chimney draft too large> 22 Pa, draft regulator should be installed.
Stove is burning too weak
Possible cause:
• Insufficient wood
• Insufficient air supply for room ventilation
• Unclean smoke flue
• Leaky chimney
• Leakage between chimney and flue
Insufficient draught in the chimney
Possible cause:
• Insufficient temperature difference, e.g., due to poorly insulated chimney
• high outside temperature, e.g., in the summer
• Absence of wind
• The chimney is too low and sheltered
• False air in the chimney
• Chimney and flue clogged
• The house lacks ventilation (lack of fresh air supply).
• Negative smoke extraction (poor draft conditions)
With a cold chimney or severe weather conditions, the poor draught can be compen-
sated by supplying the stove with more air than usual.
If the interuptions persists, we recommend that you contact your RAIS dealer or chim-
neysweep.
WARNING!
If the firewood is damp or used incorrectly, it can lead to excessive formation of soot in
the chimney and cause a chimney fire:
• In this case, shut off all air supply from outside (if a valve connection is installed) to
the stove
• Contact the fire department
• Never use water!
• Afterwards, you should ask your chimney sweeper to check the stove and chimney
IMPORTANT!
• To ensure safe burning, there must be clear yellow flames or clear embers
• Firewood should not lie there and "simmer".
If the firewood is only burning slowly without flames or is smoking, and too little air is
added, unburned fumes will develop. Flue gasses can ignite and explode. This may
result in damage to equipment and at worst to people.
Never
close the air supply when lighting the stove.
