Using the Air Damper
To achieve good combustion, which results in better heating efficiency, it is im
-
portant to add the right amount of air to the fire. Air is regulated by using the two
levers that are located beneath the door of the WIKING Minic. The left-hand lever
controls the damper for primary air, while the one on the right controls the damper
for secondary air and the pane flush function; see figure 2.
In the table below you can see the effect on air flow in relation to the position of the lever.
Lever’s position
Effect on air flow
Used for
Both levers are pushed all
the way to the right.
All air, i.e. both primary and se-
condary air, is opened up.
This setting is always to be used
when lighting a cold stove and firing
new wood.
The lighting lever is set to
the left.
Primary air is closed while com-
bustion and pane-flushing air is
still completely open. By
gradually adjusting the lever
to the left, the amount of air is
lowered, and the temperature is
thereby reduced.
This setting is to be used when the
wood is burning well and the flame is
even and steady. This will allow you
to get the most out of your firewood.
I
n Figure 3 you can see the importance of air for proper combustion.
