What can you make a fire with?
This Varde stove has been approved and
tested for the combustion of wood. Only dry
wood may be used with a max. water
content of 21% and a size that is suitable for
the combustion chamber. If you use wet
wood, it will produce a lot of tarry soot,
pollute the outdoor air and your stove will
have a poor fuel economy. Wood from newly
felled trees contains approx. 60–70% water,
and it is completely unsuitable for use in
fires. You should expect that wood from
newly cut trees will have to be stored under
a roof for at least 12 months to dry before it
can be used in the stove.
Do not use! - Take care of the
environment
Similarly, you must never fire your stove
with wood that is toxic when burned, such as
glulam, particle board, painted or laminated
wood. If you fire your stove with these
completely unsuitable materials, it will
change the combustion properties, which will
affect the stove’s output and can result in
overheating of the stove and the warranty
will be void. In addition, the burning of this
kind of material will lead to emissions of
very unpleasant smoke with extremely high
levels of pollution.
Your new stove
When you use the stove for the first time, the
surface coating will cure and smoke will come
from the stove and it will have a slightly
pungent smell, which will disappear after a
good airing. We therefore recommend that
you open doors and windows so there is
airflow to/from outside.
During the curing process, the coating will
become soft and vulnerable, so therefore
avoid touching the coated surfaces. We also
recommend that you regularly open and close
the door during the first couple of hours to
avoid the door’s gasket from becoming stuck
to the coating.
Which wood is the best?
In general, beech is the best wood for a fire. It
burns evenly and produces very little smoke and
the ash is clean and does not take up much
space. Ash, maple and birch are also suitable
alternatives.
How big does the pieces of wood have
to be?
Wood with a diameter that is greater than 8–10
cm should be chopped into smaller pieces. The
logs must be 20–25 cm in length. Using larger
amounts of firewood than stated in the table on
the bottom of the page, will load the wood-
burning stove with heat that is higher than it is
designed for, which will cause a higher tempe-
rature in the chimney and lower efficiency.
In this fashion, the chimney can become dama-
ged and the warranty will be void.
