Operating Instructions The appliance has been extensively tested and meets all the requirements necessary to burn wood in smoke controlled areas and is DEFRA approved. If the appliance is installed, operated and regularly serviced correctly it will offer many years of reliable service.
Operating Instructions Notes on Wood Burning - Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore only necessary to remove surplus ash from the grate occasionally. Burn only dry, well seasoned wood, which should have been cut, split and stacked for at least 12 months, with free air movement around the sides of the stack to enable it to dry out.

General Maintenance Stove Body The stove is finished with a heat-resistant paint and this can be cleaned with a soft brush. Do not clean whilst the stove is hot; wait until it has cooled down. The finish can be renovated with a suitable brand of paint. Glass Panels Clean the glass panel when cool with a proprietary glass cleaner.
Trouble Shooting POOR HEAT OUTPUT A) Stove too small for a room. Seek advise from a Qualified Heating Engineer as to (KW) output required for room size as a guideline the volume of the room in cubic feet divided by 500 i.e. room 15’x15’x8’ would require 3.6kw approx. B) Chimney and/or flue pipe restricted, room ventilation restricted.
