2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The continuous fire cookers of La Nordica are suitable to cook on the grill and on the oven and to heat
living spaces for some periods or to support an insufficient centralized heating system. They are ideal for
holiday apartments and weekend houses or as an auxiliary heating system during the whole year. As fuel,
wood logs is used. The continuous fire cooker is made of galvanized and enamelled steel sheets and
enamelled cast iron (doors, front side, plate ).
The hearth is totally sheathed with single cast iron sheets. Inside there is a thick, flat and extractable grate.
Below the oven door there is an extractable wood drawer, with the related closing door.
The heating of the environment is made by irradiation: through the panoramic glass and the external hot
surfaces of the stove, the heat is radiated into the environment.

The smokes control can be found on the top right plate
of the cooker, between the lid and the exhaust pipe.
This control has two settings:
HOB COOKING : when the bar is pushed to the back of
the cooker, the combustion gases flow around the oven
and directly into the flue and up to the chimney.
OVEN COOKING: when the control bar is pulled out,
the combustion gases flow around the oven, heating it.
3. RULES FOR INSTALLATION

must be connected with a junction to the existing flue of the house. The junction must be possibly short,
straight, horizontal or positioned a little uphill. The connections must be tight.
It is obligatory to respect the National and European rules, local regulations concerning building
