mouth of the fi replace closed.
The wood must always burn with a fl ame,
avoid a smouldering fire.

wood shown in the technical sheet provided.

age Firebox .

Recommended wood types
(in descending order)
oak• ash • birch • elm •
• fi r
1 kg of moist wood generates 2000-2500
kcal/h
1 kg of dry wood (20% moisture equal to
about two years of seasoning) generates
3500/3700 kcal/h
so, burning moist wood means obtaining
less heat
Moreover, moist wood causes a smouldering
fi re with increased formation of tar and con-
densate, resulting in damage to the chimney.
In any case, the fi replace will be dirtier.
Burning of waste, especially plastic, packag-
ing and painted or treated wood, will damage
the chimney pot and generate harmful emis-
sions.
