The chimney
Always use a chimney with a diameter of at least 15 cm. This corresponds to a bore of 175 cm

.
Make sure the chimney is of sufficient height, that it draws well and that the smoke does not
bother your neighbours.
We recommend that you fit your chimney with a damper, allowing for draft control. This may
prove particularly important on windy days. Note: the damper must never shut off draught com-
pletely – always allow at least 20 cm

free passage through the chimney.
With nominal usage the stove has tested a flue gas flow of 5.5 g/second, with a flue gas temper-
ature of 340°C and at a room temperature of 20°C.
Varde Ovne stoves
are always fitted with a smoke deflector plate which redirects smoke to
make its way to the chimney as effective as possible. This ensures that the heat from the smoke
is emitted inside your home rather than outside it. The smoke deflector plate is moveable and
placed in the combustion chamber. You should make sure that it is pushed all the way back
against the back wall of the combustion chamber.
Draught conditions
Consult your local chimney sweeper about how best to adjust the draught in your chimney.
Height of chimney
If in doubt, contact your local chimney sweeper. He will be able to inform you of the correct
height.
