• Smoke entering the room from the firebox when the door is open may be caused by
• Insufficient length of flue (Flue to be 4500mm minimum from underneath base of heater to underside of cowl)
– Increase height of flue.
• Flue Downdraught
– Consult dealer or increase height of flue.
• Creosote Build up in flue
– Remove cowl and clean flue as per cleaning instructions. Check moisture content of wood.
• Excessive ash build up
Some woods will give large amounts of ash despite how you run the heater. Others will give you very little. Use the wood which is most
convenient for you as long as it is dry. After a period of time you will get to know when to empty your unit. Always leave 12mm of ash
in the bottom of your heater. Bark will give you excessive ash. Try not to burn it.
If you are burning wood that gives you charcoal, you may find that after running the heater say for 8 hours at maximum burn rate, the
charcoal builds up excessively. Overnight burn will reduce this charcoal back to a fine ash. If you are not ready to shutdown for
overnight burn when you next fuel the stove, load the stove with only one piece of wood and lay it across the firebox on top of the
charcoal. Open the air control wide open and you will find the charcoal will burn down with the one piece of wood. Repeat the process
until the ash level is significantly reduced.
