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.
