fires have been in production for more than 30 years. From experience, along with
other New Zealand manufacturers, most issues relating to obtaining maximum efficiencies come
from loading the fire with wet wood (more than 25% moisture content).
The New Zealand Home Heating Association report that as much as 95% of complaints received
are a result of poor fuel.
We strongly suggest you read the 'Firewood' section in this booklet.
