FUELS
The heating boiler can utilize only natural and untreated wood, or coal. Pressed fuels
and briquettes containing only wood may also be used. Log length should be: up to
1500 mm.
For maximum utilization of the wood heating value we recommend only using wood
which has been dried over a period
of at least 1,5 - 2 years. High
moisture content of the wood
decreases its heating value which in
turn reduces boiler output.

and water content.

TRANSPORTATION OF THE BOILER
We recommend to transport the heating boiler to the installation site in its packaging
placed on the pallet. During transport and installation, depending on the weight,
appropriate safety equipment must be used in accordance with Directive
2006/42/EC. When transporting items weighing more than 30 kg, the use of pallet
jack, forklift or other hoisting devices is a must.
