CHIMNEY FIRES
If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not occur. However, if a chimney fire
does occur turn the air control se�ng to the minimum, and �ghtly close the doors of the stove. This should
cause the chimney fire to go out in which case the control should be kept at the minimum se�ng un�l the fire
in the stove has gone out. The chimney and flue ways should then be cleaned. If the chimney fire does not go
out when the above ac�on is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately. A�er a chimney fire
the chimney should be carefully examined for any damage. Expert advice should be sought if necessary.
