Lighting a Coal Fire
Lighting a Coal Fire with Wood and Paper
If lighting the stove with paper and wood,
open
the
air wash vent
and set the
thermostatic damper
to "Minimum". Place some lightly
crumpled paper on the grate and upon this place some tightly rolled
paper, followed by kindling wood and a few small pieces of coal. Light
the loosely crumpled paper, close the front door and allow the wood to
be burning thoroughly before placing more coal on the fire. At this point
the
thermostatic damper
should be set to its "Maximum" position
and the
air wash vent
repositioned so that it provides the minimum
air necessary to keep any smoke from reaching the glass. When the
coal is burning without smoke the
air wash
should be closed and the
fire controlled with the
thermostatic damper
only.
Lighting a Coal Fire with Firelighters
If lighting the fire with propriety firelighters, open the
air wash vent
very slightly and the
thermostatic
damper
set to "Mid" position. A bed of small coals should be placed on the grate, two firelighters placed
centrally on this bed some 20mm apart and upon which further small coals should be placed. Care
should be taken not to put too much coal on the firelighters as this will prevent
them burning freely as a small flame below
the coals. Light the firelighters and close
the stove door. Monitor the flame from the
firelighters to ensure they are burning quietly
and not subjected to excessive draught.
When the coals are seen to be burning, more
coal can be placed on the fire. Close the
air wash vent
and the fire controlled by the
thermostatic damper.
Thermostat air damper set to "Minimum".
