The air tube in your Kent wood fire is an important part of the appliance and helps ensure 

a clean, efficient and controllable burn. However, air tubes are a consumable item and 

are designed to be replaced as they are likely to degrade with use due to the exposure 

to the extreme heat of the fire.

The life of the air tube will depend on what is burnt in the fire, how hot the fire usually 

burns and also the ash level. If the ash level is allowed to build up. This can push ashes up 

and into the holes stopping the air cooling effect. It also means hot embers are in closer 

proximity to the tube, increasing the temperature exposure. Keep ember levels to the 

recommended height of more than 3cm below air tubes.

Replacing air tubes:

1.   Remove bricks from both sides

2.   Remove the pin from the end of the old tube

3.   Slide tube to one side, this will release the opposite end

4.   Pull released end up and towards the door and remove

5.   Reverse process for installation of new tube
