FIRE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY! 5 Eco-friendly advices for sensible heating - common sense both environmentally and economically. 1. Effective lighting. Use small pieces of wood (fir tree) and a suitable fire lighter, for example paraffined wood wool/saw- dust. Open the air damper, so plenty of air is fed to the stove and the gases from the heated wood can burn rapidly.
Congratulations on the purchase of your new RAIS woodburning stove. A RAIS woodburning stove is more than just a source of heat, it is a symbol of the emphasis you put on decorating your home with superiorly designed high-quality prod- ucts.
