Although the energy content of dry wood per kilogram is almost the same regardless of species, softwoods
and hardwoods burn differently because of differences in density. Softwoods, such as pine, are less
dense than hardwoods like gums, Manuka or Black Wattle. A denser wood will produce a longer-lasting
coal bed, while a less dense wood will bring a fire to an optimum burning temperature more quickly.
The size of the firewood pieces affects the rate of combustion. Larger pieces ignite and release their
energy more slowly than small pieces. Smaller pieces are better for short, hot fires and larger pieces are
preferable for extended firing cycles. In general, commercial firewood dealers supply firewood in thicker
pieces than modern wood-burning heaters can handle. It is often necessary to split some of the wood
again before using it. The thickest piece size for high-efficiency heaters should not exceed about 150mm
(6 in.) across the largest dimension and a range of smaller pieces will be needed for effective stoking.
Maximum log length varies according to model.
BuRNING COAl
Due to their construction, the burning of coal in Jayline solid fuel heaters is prohibited. Please also refer
to ‘Exclusions’ in the Warranty Page 13.
JAylINE WOOD FIRE MAINTENANCE
To keep your fire burning clean and efficient it is important that you carry out regular maintenance.
General maintenance checks should include the following:-
ASH REMOvAL - Due to the high efficiency of your Jayline fire, ash removal should only be necessary
every few weeks. Ashes can be removed easily through the fire door when the fire is at its lowest, such as
first thing in the morning, or when it is completely out. Always use a metal container to remove ash from
your fire as ash can maintain high temperatures for several days. Jayline fires work best when a small
amount of ash (approximately 40mm deep) is left in the firebox after cleaning. This insulates the bottom
and prevents the base of the firebox overheating and burning out. In fact, building up the ash bed helps
extend the long burn cycle, while reducing the ash bed encourages greater heat output.
SURFACES - Jayline wood fires have high temperature painted surfaces which just need wiping to clean
when the fire is cold.
FIREBOX - Check the firebricks, top baffle and interior surfaces. These parts are subjected to considerably
high temperatures and stress and some parts will eventually need replacing.
DOORS - Check all gaskets used for wear and replace if necessary. Adjust door fitting if required.
LUBRICATION - All moving parts should be lubricated with graphite grease every couple of months.
