6.2.  FLUE DRAUGHT

The flue has two main functions:

1. 

To safely remove smoke, gases and fumes 
from the appliance.

2. 

To provide a sufficient amount of draught 
(suction) in the appliance to ensure the fire 

keeps burning.

Draught is caused by the rising hot air in the flue 
when the fire has been lit.

The position, height and size of the flue can affect 
the performance of the flue draught. Refer to 
installation guide for details on flue installation.

Factors affecting the flue draught include:

 

Insufficient flue height

 

Trees or other buildings nearby causing 
turbulence

 

High and gusty winds

 

Outside temperature and weather 
conditions

 

Blocked flue

For advice on the correction of persistent flue 

problems consult your supplier/installer.

7.  ASH REMOVAL

Depending on the type of wood burnt and 
frequency, the ashes will need removing every 2 
to 6 weeks.

Retaining a minimum of 10mm of ash helps 

protect the base of the firebox, and can make it 
easier to start the fire next time.

Excess ashes should be removed when necessary, 
placed in a non-combustible container with a 

tightly fitting lid and moved outdoors immediately 

to a location clear of combustible materials.

8.  FLUE/CHIMNEY FIRE

If a flue/chimney fire occurs:

 

Shut air slide control fully to smother the fire

 

Do not use the appliance after a flue fire 

until an accredited installer has assessed the 
cause and any resultant damage.

9.  CLEANING PAINTWORK AND GLASS

The appliance, when cool, can be cleaned with a 
damp cloth.

Over the years, the black paint will fade and can 
be touched up with Stove Bright metallic black 
paint.

To clean the glass, we recommend using a 
household window cleaner or general purpose 
cleaner with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive 
cleaner or scourer pads.
