Troubleshooting

Smoke emissions
• Damp wood
• Poor draught in chimney
• Chimney is not properly dimensioned for the stove
• Check if flue pipe/chimney is blocked
• Is the chimney the right height for its surroundings?
• At the rear outlet, check that the flue pipe does not obstruct
the vent in the chimney
• Negative pressure in the room
• The door is opened before the embers have died down
sufficiently
Wood burning too quickly
• The air vents are set incorrectly
• The baffle plates are incorrectly positioned or missing
• Inferior fuel (waste wood, wood from pallets etc.)
• Chimney drawing too much
Soot build-up on the glass
• Incorrect secondary airflow setting
• Excessive primary air
• Damp wood
• Wood pieces too large on lighting
• Inferior fuel (waste wood, wood from pallets etc.)
• Chimney not drawing enough
• Negative pressure in the room
Excessive soot build-up in chimney
• Poor combustion (more air required)
• Damp wood
The surface of the stove is turning grey
• Too much fuel being added (see instructions for operation)
Stove is not emitting heat
• Damp wood
• Not enough wood
• Inferior wood quality with low calorific value
• Baffle plates not seated correctly
Smell and sound of the stove
• When you use the stove for the first time, the paint lacquer will
harden, and this may result in a slight smell. Open a window
or a door for ventilation and make sure the stove heats up
sufficiently to prevent any intrusive smell later on.
• When heating up and cooling down, the stove may make some
clicking noises. These are due to the huge temperature differences
to which the material is exposed and are not indicative of any
fault with the product.
