5.8. Firewood storage
We recommend storing the wood under a roof however with good ventilation, perhaps in a carport
or shed. Always place the wood on a wooden pallet or the like so that it is off the ground. Fresh
wood that has been sawed and split must be stored for about 1-2 years in order to be used as
fuel. (in the stove). This is done to ensure that the wood will contain the right amount of moisture
of approx. 15-20%. The moisture content of the wood can be easily measured with a Termatech
moisture meter, which is available at your dealer (item number 92-150).
5.9. The Ashes
The ashes can be put in the rubbish bin for garbage collection. The ashes should be cooled for
about 2 days before placing it in the rubbish bin as there might still be embers.
6.0. Malfunctions and help
Below is a list of the most common malfunctions using a wood-burning stove.
6.1. The stove is difficult to control
Incident
• It burns too fast
Solution
• Close the start-up air (put air control handle in the middle) or possibly turn down the se-
condary air (push air control handle from the middle towards left).
• Read and follow the user and installation guide.
• If the stove is more than 1 year or has been used heavily then the jointings need to be
checked and possibly changed. The jointings get worn and the heat which will make them
loose their ability to keep the door sealed.
• If there is a heavy draft in the chimney it may be necessary to fit a damper in the chimney to
control the draft. Possibly contact your dealer.
6.2. The stove burns badly/the chimney draft is poor
Incident
• The stove has poor draft after installation.
Solution
• Read and follow the user and installation guide
• Is there sufficient embers (to light the newly put wood)
• Was minimum 2 pieces of wood placed in the stove?
• Is the wood dry (maximum 20% moisture)?
• Is the damper fully open? (In the middle or right for max. up to 10 minutes)
• Does the room where the stove is placed have sufficient airflow?
• It is especially the conditions surrounding the chimney that may cause problems. Is the
chimneys diameter and length correct in relation to the stove?
• Is there possibly anything interfering at the chimney top (trees or alike) which prevents it
from functioning optimally.
• Is the chimney blocked?
• Are the smoke pipe and junctions sealed?
• Is the cleaning hatch sealed?
If the problem persist please contact your dealer or chimney sweep.
6.3. Smoke and soot smell
Incident
• Smoke and soot smell
Solution
• Down draught in the chimney. This often happens in specific wind directions.
• The chimney needs to be elongated or a smoke extractor must be mounted. Contact your
dealer.
• The chimney may be too short in relation to the roof and / or nearby trees/buildings.
• Check if the smoke is not able to come in via any skylights or windows.
• Close the door while there are flames.
6.4. The glass soots up when lighting the fire
