Cleaning
Be careful when you remove ash from the stove. There may
be embers left as long as 24 hours after the stove was last
used. The ash may, when it is cold, be placed in a garbage
bag
Chimney draught
The chimney draught depends on the weather conditions.
In stormy weather, you may reduce the chimney draught by
closing the damper in the smoke pipe (if a damper has been
installed). If the chimney draught is strong, the combustion
air supply must be reduced additionally.
Stoking during spring time and autumn
At outdoor temperatures of more than 15°C, the stove may
be under-fired, and a so-called "cold" combustion will take
place. The result will be an increasing formation of soot in the
smoke ducts of the stove, in the chimney connector, and in
the chimney. To avoid the soot buildup, we recommend that
you clean the smoke ducts more frequently and increase the
supply of combustion air. Small pieces of wood should be
used, and fuel should be added more frequently.
General advice for your safety
A wood-burning stove has an intermittent burning.
Please be careful! The stove and in particular the exte-
rior surfaces get hot when in use!
Chimney fire
In case of a chimney fire, close the door, the ash tray, and all
air valves on the stove. If necessary, call the fire service.
Open fireplace
If the stove is used as an open fireplace with open doors, you
must use a spark guard of wire mesh or glass. If you leave
the room in which the stove is installed, remember to close
the doors of the stove.
Burning with open doors reduces the efficiency.
