Congratulations on the purchase of your new Bohemia stove. Your new purchase will provide you with a level of
pleasure and comfort not previously experienced in your home.
Please read and follow the advice and instructions on the safe and efficient operation of your stove to ensure it has
a long trouble free life and also read and follow the installation instructions before installing the stove.
PART 1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A stove compared with an open fire is a very efficient heating appliance and must be installed and used safely and wisely,
it is important to understand the working of such an appliance and to understand the process of converting the fuel into
heat and its efficient transfer from the firebox to the room in order to gain the most from the stove.
A stove creates an almost perfect environment to burn wood in. The firebox will run at a very high temperature ideal to
burn the volatiles given off in the burning process and the concise air controls allow minimal heat loss into the flue. The
Bohemia X 40 inset stove operates at an efficiency of 71 %
on a Gross CV basis (78% Net) and is very much more
efficient than an open fire avoiding the wasteful draughts normally associated with that type of appliance
Burning wood is the natural way to store the sun‟s energy to then be released in a carbon neutral process to heat your
house when the need is most. On a cold winters night there is nothing to beat the release of heat and flame in a stove to
raise the spirit.
The preparation and burning of wood as a fuel in stoves can be traced back many centuries, however it is a forgotten or
maybe never fully discovered activity in the United Kingdom, we have much to learn from our European and
Scandinavian neighbours whose colder winters have instinctively led them into a natural wood burning culture.
Wood for fuel is probably one of the most environmentally friendly energy sources, it is carbon neutral, trees used for
fuel production regenerate very quickly and it is a pleasant and satisfying job preparing the firewood for the coming
winters.
WARNING NOTE
Properly installed, operated and maintained this stove will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes from de-
ashing and refueling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated.
If fume emission persists, then the following immediate action should be taken:
a)
Open doors and windows to ventilate room
b)
Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance
c)
Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean if required
d)
Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected. If
necessary seek expert advice
The most common cause of fume emission is flue way or chimney blockage. For your own safety these must be kept
clean at all times.
Any permanent air vent provided for combustion air must not be blocked off
.
There must not be
