
A normal burning rate would use 6 to 8 logs of 6cm in diameter, on a good bed of coals and
the air position in 2 or 3.

For a slow burn one would use fewer logs (3) but of greater thickness (13 to 15cm diameter)
on a moderate bed of coals.

A thin layer of ash on the grid often makes it easier to light the fire.

In order to overcome a poor draw it is recommended to try and build up a larger, stronger
fire. Take note of the outside weather conditions as these affect the draw: High winds -
strong draw, Fog – low draw.
For a slow burn, it is necessary to let the bed of coals burn down substantially, then load 1 or 2 big
logs and set the air intake lever to a minimum.
NOTE: The duration of the burn will depend on the type of wood being used and the draw. The
height of the firewood load in the unit must never exceed 25cm.
THE HEATER CHIMNEY

Always follow the instructions.

When using the heater for the first few times, make moderate fires in order to ensure it’s
correct operation. One can gradually increase the burning load over a period of several days.

Do not use the heater like an incinerator.

Only use recommended burning material (wood).

Do not use the unit if the glass is broken or cracked. The glass should first be replaced. Your
installer should be contacted in order to assist you in replacing the glass – for which you will
be invoiced. One may look at replacing the door seals at the same time and
special care
must be taken in not overtightening any clamps or brackets that hold the glass in place as
it is important to allow for expansion and contraction.

After a long period of inactivity, ensure that the chimney/ flue is not obstructed and also any
air guides or smoke/ fume passages within the unit.
Loading: IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATION
When loading firewood into the unit, the fire should be sufficiently low. Do not open the door if
there are extensive high flames as one may risk drawing these outwards when opening the door.
The door must always be opened very slowly in order to allow the draw to stabilise and to avoid the
possibility of blowback.
THE IMPORTANCE OF FUEL (FIREWOOD)
This unit must give you entire satisfaction. Nonetheless one must not forget that the heater can only
liberate the energy in the fuel that it is burning.
If it seems that your heater is not producing sufficient heat, we can affirm that:

The quantity of firewood is too little.

The firewood being used does not have sufficient available energy.
