GENERAL INFORMATION & OPERATION
6. Heat Output
A maximum peak heat output of approximately 9
-
15 kW can be expected with dry wood . Due to the clean air requirements there is re-
duced control of the minimum heat output and the fires have limited burn periods. The height of the flue system can have an effect on the
draw, control and burn periods of the fire. The stove can heat an area of approximately 150
-
250 sq metres.
NOTE :
The condition, moisture content and type of wood burned will have a direct result on the performance of the fire.
A Rural fire that can burn for longer periods can be ordered, but contact your local council for Installation and Clean air compliance requirements.
7. Construction
The firebox is constructed from 6mm steel plate with some fairings made from 1.6mm steel. The outer skin and tray are constructed from
3mm and 1.6mm steel plate. The unit has a formed steel door and 5mm Robax glass.
8. Finish
High temperature steel parts are finished with a matt black high temperature paint designed to withstand the rigors of normal
combustion.
9. Glass Door
When in operation, the full beauty of the combustion process can be seen through the large ceramic
-
glass window. This win-
dow is kept clean by the inlet air passing from top to bottom over the glass. Any build up of residue that may occur on the
glass can be removed with a mild abrasive liquid cleaner or proprietary stove glass cleaner. Wet wood is more likely than dry
wood to produce window
-
marking emissions.
10. Testing and Clean Air Approval
The 46L & 70L range of fires have been tested and approved to ASNZS 2918:2001 specifications for solid fuel burning heat-
ers and also to AS/NZS 4012 giving compliance with MFE (Ministry for the Environment New Zealand) clean air requirements
in New Zealand and Australia. The stove has not been designed to operate with the door open for long periods. Clean air
testing is conducted with the door closed. See the attached Data sheet on page 2, 3 and 4 and the data plate attached to the
Fire. Contact with your local TA (Territorial Authority) to check for local compliance.
11. Flue System
The installation and construction of the flue system must comply with ASNZS 2918. The fire requires a
Warmington Tested
and approved flue system only
, as tested to ASNZS 2918. The tested flue system should not be modified in any way with-
out the written approval of the manufacturer. Any additional flue components to the flue system must comply with ASNZS
2918.
12. Floor Protection— “ASH”
Floor protectors are normally designed to suit each individual “setting”. The installation and construction of the floor protector
must comply with ASNZS 2918. The fire requires an “ASH” (Floor Protector) as needed for some types of wood burners.
13. Maintenance
The operation, components and general condition of the fire and flue system need to be checked annually, or more
frequently if required. Repair or replace parts when necessary. For more information, contact your local Retailer.
The chimney and firebox are to be cleaned annually or more frequently if required.
Chimney Maintenance:
To clean chimney, remove flues cowl assembly from the top of the flue system, and the baffle system inside the top of
the firebox. Make sure the door is closed on the fire. Use a chimney brush to clean the flue from the top down. Remove
soot/ash from the firebox (see instructions in this document).
Firebox:
Keep your stove clean by polishing all over with a soft cloth when unit is cool. In humid climates more interior firebox cor-
rosion will occur in non
-
use summer months than in winter. The stoves life can be greatly extended by cleaning the fire-
box interior at the end of winter and spraying with Stovebright high temperature black paint.
14. Wetback (
Wetbacks may NOT be allowed to be fitted to fires that are installed in any area that falls under clean
air regulations, contact your local territorial authority for local compliance
)
On special order a wetback model can be supplied. This unit acts as a hot water booster, producing between 1 & 2.5kW. The
wetback sits above the firebox baffle. The inlet and outlet are at the fire back and require standard 25mm pipe connections to
the threaded brass pipe of the wetback. Inlet and outlet pipes are at different height, cold supply is lower and the Hot return is
the higher, and needs to be correctly connected by the plumber.
Note: Not all fires have the provision for a Wet Back.
