2.2. PErmiTTED FuEl
It is only permitted to burn only wood in natural condition with the humidity ≤18 % in Hoxter
fireplace inserts.
2.3. TyPES OF WOOD
The volume of energy contained in one kilogram of wood is approximately the same for all types
of wood. However, the individual types of wood differ by volume, i.e. density.
For ignition it is recommended to use wood with a lower density – soft wood (spruce, pine,
poplar, fir).
For regular adding, wood with a higher density is recommended – hard wood (oak, beech, ash),
that burns with calm flame and creates a steady heat.
2.4. STOraGE OF WOOD FuEl
It is recommended to store wood for ideally 2 to 3 years in well ventilated and dry area. Optimally,
wood is recommended to be stored to the southern part of the house on a grid to provide a flow
of air and good ventilation of wood. We recommend to cover the top of the wood to protect against
rain
(Fig. 3).
In this way, humidity of 15–18 % will be achieved.
