OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Model: Pyroclassic® IV Wood Burner
Pyroclassic fires are unique and work differently from other wood burners.
Please take your time to read through these instructions to maximise the benefits of
your new Pyroclassic IV.
Save these instructions for future reference.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Pyroclassic® fires have been in production for more than 30 years. Our experience, along with
other New Zealand manufacturers, is most issues relating to obtaining maximum efficiencies
come from loading the fire with wet wood (more than 25% moisture content).
The New Zealand Home Heating Association report that as much as 95% of complaints received
are a result of poor fuel.
We strongly suggest you read the 'Firewood' section on page 6 in this booklet.

  • Page 8 If you keep your fire burning under the air tubes, this will ensure the maximum amount of heat is captured within the ceramic cylinder. Please Note: Only use Pyroclassic Fires tools as using others may cause damage to the cylinder. Always take care not to heavily impact the ceramic surface.
  • Page 9 We recommend your flue be swept at least once a year, or more frequently if necessary (i.e. if you notice smoke coming out of the open door). Pyroclassic fires are different from other wood fires and should be swept from the top down into a tray at the bottom of the flue; if excess buildup has occurred then it may be necessary to remove the top plate from the fire to empty out the top chamber.

  • Page 12 Insufficient fuel load. The Pyroclassic IV burns approximately 1.1kg of wood per hour. Softwoods are lighter and therefore less fuel can fit into the cylinder, making it more difficult to achieve overnight burns. Well-seasoned hard woods are ideal for extended burn times because of their density. See ‘Pyroclassic Fires Customer Handbook’ for more information.
