10 How heat is delivered by your stove

10.1 Radiant heat

All Arada stoves radiate heat into the room. The radiated heat is most intense
at the front of the stove and less intense the further you move away from the
stove.
This radiated heat is delivered as infrared rays which heat the objects they
strike. It is then these objects (such as the chimney breast, hearth etc.) which
heat the surrounding air.

10.2 Convected heat

Air immediately adjacent to the stove is heated as a result of contact with its
hot surfaces. This air then rises being replaced by cooler air which is then heated
and rises again.
This creates a circuit or ow of air referred to as a convection current, which
helps to distribute heat around the room in which the stove has been installed.

11 Ongoing care for your Arada stove

The following items should be checked on your stove at regular intervals to help
ensure that the safe and e cient use of your stove continues for many years to
come. This should only be done when the stove is unlit and cold.
