Installation and Operation Manual - Cape Town 1800

ENGLISH

Ashes almost always contain live embers that can stay hot for days and which release carbon 

monoxide gas. Ashes should be placed in a tightly covered metal container. The container must 

be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well away from all combustible materials.

If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be kept 

in a closed metal container until they are completely cooled. No other waste should be placed 

in this container. 

5.6  Air Intake Control

For lighting, move the air control to the cold-start position. Once the firewood, firebox and 

chimney are hot, air intake can be reduced to achieve a steady burn. 

As the air intake is reduced, the burn rate decreases. This 

has the effect of distributing the thermal energy of the fuel 

over a longer period of time. In addition, the flow rate of 

exhaust through the appliance and flue pipe slows down, 

which increases the duration of the energy transfer of the 

exhaust gases. As the air intake is reduced, the flame 

slows down.

If the flames diminish to the point of disappearing, the air 

intake has been reduced too early in the combustion cycle 

or the wood used is too wet. If the wood is dry and the air 

control is used properly, the flames should decrease, but 

remain bright and stable.

On the other hand, too much air can make the fire uncontrollable, creating very high temperatures 

in the unit as well as in the chimney and seriously damaging them. A reddish glow on the unit 

and on the chimney components indicates overheating. Excessive temperatures can cause a 

chimney fire.

5.7 Fire 

Types

Using the air intake control is not the only way to match the appliance heat output to the desired 

temperature in the house. A house will need far less heating in October than in January to 

maintain a comfortable temperature. Filling the firebox full in fall weather will overheat the space. 

Otherwise, the combustion rate will have to be reduced to a minimum and the fire will be smoky 

and inefficient. Here are some suggestions for building fires suitable for different heating needs.

5.7.1 Flash 

Fire

To build a small fire that will produce a low heat output, use small pieces of firewood and load 

them crisscross in the firebox. The pieces should only be 3" (76 mm) to 4" (102 mm) in diameter. 

After raking the coals, lay two pieces parallel to each other diagonally in the firebox and lay two 

more across them in the other direction. Open the air control fully and only reduce the air after 

the wood is fully flaming. This kind of fire is good for mild weather and should provide enough 

heat for up to four hours. Small fires like this are a good time to use softer wood species and 

avoid overheating the house.

NEVER STORE ASHES INDOORS OR IN A NON-METALLIC CONTAINER 

OR ON A WOODEN DECK.
