Draft conditions 

The  chimney‟s  draft  is  the  resulting  effect  within  the  flue  caused  by  the  difference  in  temperature 
within the flue and the cooler temperature outside. Other factors that can influence the level of draft 
include the length of the flue, insulation of the chimney, adverse weather conditions or tall buildings or 
trees nearby the flue terminal. 

 
Poor draft occurs when: 

 

The atmospheric temperature difference is too low, e.g. a poorly insulated chimney. If the chimney 
is  excessively cool,  it may help  to  „prime‟ the flue before the fire is  lit. Just place a screwed-up 
sheet of newspaper in the flue way of the stove and ignite. 

 

The outside temperature is too high, e.g. during the summer months. 

 

There is no air movement (wind) outside. 

 

The chimney is not tall enough, with the result that the terminal sits in the lee of the roof surface or 
in  the  vicinity  of  tall  trees  or  neighboring  buildings.  These  conditions  are  also  associated  with 
downdraft where the flue gases are pushed back down the chimney. 

 

Flue draft is diluted by residual air entering the chimney, e.g. due to inadequate fluepipe joints or 
leaks at the cleaning door or flue collar.   

 

Unsealed, unused fireplaces are connected to the chimney. 

 

The flue is blocked, e.g. by soot, due to inadequate cleaning, loose debris or even a birds nest. 

 

The room to which the stove is installed is too tightly sealed. (See section on Fresh air supply).   

 

A good draft is achieved when: 

 

The  temperature  difference  between  the  flue  way  or  chimney  and  outside  atmosphere  is  high. 
(Higher temperature in flue way or chimney and cooler temperature to external atmosphere). This 
also applies during firing, when the need is greatest. 

 

The weather is clear and there is a good wind. 

 

The  chimney  is  of  the  proper  height,  i.e.  minimum  4  meters  over  the  stove  and  the  termination 
adequately clear of the roof line. 

 

The room that the stove is installed is adequately ventilated. 

 
 

 

2.9 Handle

 

This stove is supplied with two handles for customer preference. One is a Bakelite handle & the other 
is a stainless steel tube handle.   

Handle assembly 

This stove is assembled with one type of handle when manufactured. If your preference is to use the 
other  handle  supplied  then  please  refer  to  the  handle  assembly  picture  for  instructions  on  how  to 
change. It is recommended that an approved five fingered heat proof glove of the correct size for each 
users hand is used to operate this stove.
