2.4.3 Tertiary Air
– not controlled (fixed supply)
The Tertiary Air Supply is bled into the stove from the rear panel. Its function is to ignite
unburned gasses helping provide a clean burn. It is advisable to clear these holes from
time to time with a brush, especially when the stove is being serviced or after long periods
of burning.
Only carry out this and all servicing procedures when the stove is cold. This
tertiary air supply is permanently open and allows a small amount of air into the stove.
Operation with air controls open can cause excess smoke. These stoves must not be
operated with air controls left open except as directed in these instructions.
2.4.4 Lighting the Stove
It is essential that you have three or four small fires before you operate the stove to its
maximum heat output. This is to allow the paint to cure and to “temper” your cast iron
stove. We recommend this ‘running
- in’ procedure after long shutdowns to preserve the
life of stove. During the curing of the paint you may notice an unpleasant smell. It is not
toxic, but for your comfort we would suggest that during this period you leave doors and
windows open.
First, load the fire with starting fuel i.e. dry kindling timber and/or firelighters with either
fuel chosen, wood or smokeless coal. It is normal to see smoke coming from the open
stove door at this stage.
Light the fire at the base leaving all air controls open. Allow the fuel to reach a steady glow
and build up the fire gradually. It may be helpful to leave the door ajar (10mm-15mm) for
2-3 minutes to help establish the fire. Once you have a good fire established across the
fuel bed, further fuel can be added as required. It is important not to overload at any
point.
When your fire is well established you can start to restrict the primary air intake. If you
are burning only wood, the primary air control can be fully closed. If you are burning solid
fuel you will require some primary air. Your stove is burning with maximum efficiency
when a bright fire is achieved using minimum air inlet and a Stove Thermometer. We
advise that stove thermometer is purchased in order to for you to monitor the operation
of the stove. For best results the thermometer should register within
the “Best Burn”
range.
2.4.5 Wood Burning
Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore only necessary to remove surplus ash
from the grate occasionally. Burn only kiln dried or well-seasoned wood, which should
have been cut, split and stacked under cover for at least 36 months, with free air
