6. Making up the fire for the first time
When the stove is assembled and all instructions have
been observed, a fire can be lit. Please be aware of
the following:
•
The smoke baffle and the Thermotte® plates
can be broken by a strong hit. This would not be
covered by the warranty. Place the wood logs
carefully in the burn chamber in order to avoid
such a hit.
•
It is advisable to air well when making the fire
for the first time as the varnish on the stove will
release some smoke or smell, which will disappear
and is not hazardous.
Making up a fire
Stove small dry pieces of wood, ignite and ensure
that the flames have a good grip of the wood before
closing the door. Prior to closing the door open the air
vent control (Fig 4.4).
When the flames are stable and the chimney is warm,
the air supply is controlled with this regulator. When
there is a glowing layer of coal, new wood logs can be
stoveed. When stoveing new logs, remember to pull
the hot ember forward in the stove so that the wood is
ignited from the front.
Using the stove with low combustion effect increases
the pollution as well as the risk of a fire in the chimney.
Regulation of the air vent control takes some
experience, but after a little while you will find an
optimal rhythm for the fire.
Warning: Never allow the stove or tubes to
become overheated and glowing red. Should this
happen, close the air vent control.

7. Maintenance

Remember that stove it must be cold when inspected.
Door
The glass in the door is ceramic and therefore
detergents containing abrasive material should not
be used. Use polish specific for this material and
avoid soaking the varnished surfaces. The best
advice for cleaning the glass is to use a damp cloth or
kitchen roll paper and apply some soot from the burn

chamber. Rub around the soot on the glass and finish
off with a piece of clean and damp kitchen roll paper.
NB! Only clean the glass when the stove is cold.
Depending on how frequently the fireplace is used,
it is necessary to change the gasket in the door in
order to ensure that the stove is airtight and function
optimally. The glass borders must be unscrewed in
order to change the gasket.
Ashes
The ashes should be removed with regular interval
(how often depends of course on how much the stove
is used). Be aware that the ashes can contain hot
ember even 24 hrs after that the fire has finished. Use
an inflammable container to remove the ashes. It is
recommended to leave a layer of ashes in the bottom
as this further insulates the burn chamber.
NB! Handle the Thermotte® plates with care
when emptying the ashes, especially when
using an ash spade.
Thermotte® Plates (insulation plates)
These heat-insulating plates in the burn chamber
contribute to a high combustion temperature, a
better gas exhaustion of the wood and a higher rate
of efficiency. The plates are not harmful and are
exchanged when worn (less than half of their original
thickness). Any fissures in the Thermotte® plates will
not reduce their insulation efficiency. If you need new
plates, contact your dealer. Their original thickness is
25 mm. Please note: Too long wood logs can cause
additional strain and crack the plates, due to the
tenstion created between the sideplates.
Cleaning and Inspection
The stove should be inspected thoroughly and
cleaned at least once per season (possibly in
combination with the chimney and chimney pipes
being swept). Ensure that all joints are tight and that
the gaskets are rightly positioned. Exchange any
gaskets that are worn or deformed.

8. Warranty

The steel stoves from Nordpeis AS benefit of a 5-year
warranty. Any claim during this period should primarily
be made to the dealer who sold the stove. The
warranty does not include normal wear and tear on
items such as: Thermotte® plates, smoke baffle, glass
and gaskets. New parts can be ordered at your dealer.
The warranty does not include damages that are
caused by wrong handling or misuse of the stove (see
section Advice on lighting a fire). The warranty only
entails the product. There is no compensation for
third party damage or damage to other items caused
by use of the stove. Demounting, remounting, delays
and transport are not covered for any fault that can be
noticed before assembly. A dated invoice is required
for any repair covered by the warranty.
