Lighting the fire
When lighting the fire, we recommend that it be done using the "top down" method
Start by placing 2-3 pieces of wood at the bottom of the combustion chamber.
On top of these, lay approx. 1 kg dry split sticks, as well as 2-3 firelighters.
It is important that the combustion air control lever is fully open when lighting the fire. Keep
the lever fully open for 10-20 minutes to avoid the glass getting misted, and at the same
time create a good layer of embers for the right firing conditions to be in place. The fire will
burn down to glowing embers with no flame.
The door should be opened carefully so that smoke and ash are not released, then
redistribute the embers in a smooth layer, covering the bottom of the insert up to the glass
door. Do not use printed matter or refuse to light the fire.
Add new logs and wait for approx. 4 minutes, the combustion air control lever above the
door must be completely open, as this is the control for the preheated air. When the fire has
taken a good hold and when there is a consistent pattern of clear flames, the damper can
be gradually adjusted, by pushing the lever in. Always maintain sufficient air flow to ensure
a clean burn with a clear flame pattern.
When the fire has burned down to the embers after approx. 45 min. repeat the cycle adding
more logs. The amount of heat is regulated by the amount of wood in the boiler.
