CONsumABLes
Some parts of your Fisher fire are considered consumable. They are designed to be replaced as they will
degrade over time. The life of the consumables will vary depending on;
• Frequency of use. How often the fire is used
• Rate of burn. Is the fire burning on low or high the majority of the time
• Type of fuel. Some woods are much harsher than others
General items that are considered consumables:
• Baffles
• Fire bricks
• Air tubes
(Denniston only)
• Glass and door ropes
• Grates
It is very important that you replace these parts when they show sign of wear. They effect how the fire runs
and you may increase your fuel consumption or lower your efficiency if not replaced, and can in some cases,
damage the firebox. It is generally obvious once a part is in need of replacement. Steel components may
split or large holes may appear, fire bricks may crack and disintegrate. We recommend you check your fire
visually several times a year for damaged components.
