Misty or foggy weather may possibly favour back flow of the smoke, which may be a health hazard. In this case, only use the fireplace as is necessary. for safety reasons, assemblies of appliances and accessories not provided or recommended by axis or sculpt fireplaces are not permitted. unsuitable equipment may cause dysfunctions and disorder upon use).
operation & maintenance iMPortant Warning storing any flammable materials (paper, linen, furniture, solvents, flammable liquids, spray containers, gas bottle, etc.) close to the fireplace is strictly forbidden. all these products should never be stored even for a short while in wood storages or recesses laid out under or near the appliance.
operation & maintenance triple burn system large glass Viewing area The large glass viewing area not only ensures great view of the fireplace, but assists in radiation of heat. dafs Axis inbuilt wood fireplaces are equipped with DAFS (Double Air Flow System) technology, this allows oxygen to be injected into the combustion chamber.
Page 49
operation & maintenance refraCtory fire briCks These inbuilt Axis fireplace are internally lined with manually assembled interlocking refractory bricks. This method avoids dilation by encouraging uniform and extended heat accumulation. While an axis wood heater is in use, the bricks, (which are baked at 1350° Celsius during the manufacturing process) will be heated to 600° Celsius. When the fire has dissipated the heat retained inside the bricks will still radiate heat, ensuring the fireplaces long lasting heating capacity well after the fire has ceased.
9. Warranty warranty AXIS fireboxes and firebricks are guaranteed for 10 years on the general structure of the firebox and refractory bricks, 5 years on the door lifting mechanism, 2 years on wearing parts including ash pan, ash grate and fire grate retainers. Excluded from the guarantee: door seals, ropes, gaskets, glass, baffle plate, glass, appliance joints, thermal screens, moveable parts and any degradation resulting from poor maintenance or incorrect use.
