  • Page 3 Order made and signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations. The ESSE 100SE Series has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas when burning dry wood logs in accordance with these instructions.

  • Page 6 FLUE DRAUGHT The chimney can be checked, before the stove is installed, with a smoke match. If the chimney doesn't pull the smoke it may suggest the chimney needs attention (see the Flue Diagnosis Table, below). This test is only a guide as an apparently poor flue may improve once the stove is installed, lit and the flue is warmed.
  • Page 7 FLUE STABILISER A flue stabiliser can be fitted to reduce the draught through the stove if the flue draught is too high. The flue stabiliser should be:  Fitted in the same room as the stove.  The same size as the flue pipe. ...
  • Page 8 Fit the top flue blanking panel and set the legs to give a flush fit. 10. Replace the fire bricks. A rear flue box attachment is also available from ESSE that allows the stove to be installed further out of any building recess. Fig.1 shows suitable flue connections.
  • Page 9 IMPORTANT INSTALLTION NOTES: The installation must allow for adequate chimney sweeping. Avoid using bends greater than 45 ºC to the vertical. All flue pipe sections should be as close to vertical as possible. All joints in the flue system must be effectively sealed. All flue sockets must face upwards.
  • Page 10 Fig. 5 – Using the stove mitt OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS YOUR STOVE Fig. 5 shows stove and its controls. Additional loose parts supplied inside your stove include:  A stove mitt – for adjusting the primary air controls, adjusting the air wash control, and operating the door handle.
  • Page 11 the stove can now be regulated by the rate at which fuel is added and by adjusting the air control. If the fire dies down too low, opening the air control for a short period will revive it. When reviving a low fire it is important to also use kindling before adding larger logs to help prevent smoke.
  • Page 12 TYPES OF WOOD FOR FUEL For best results use well-seasoned hardwood such as Oak, Ash or Beech. Allow wood to dry out under cover in well-ventilated conditions for at least twelve months. As a rough guide wood is ready for burning when radial cracks appear in the end of logs. Properly dry wood means it should have a moisture content of between15%-20% which can only be accurately measured using a moisture meter.
  • Page 13 MAINTENANCE CLEANING THE STOVE The stove should only be cleaned when it is cold. The exterior can be dusted with a firm brush. Do not use a cloth, as this will drag on the paint finish leaving lint on the surface. From time to time it may be necessary to renovate the exterior by repainting.
