Glance L Owner’s Manual INSTALLATION, USE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS. Certified to AS/NZS 4012 :2014 & AS/NZS 4013 :2014 Please read this manual thoroughly before installing and starting your fireplace. Keep These Instructions for future reference.
WELCOME to the HERGÓM family. We would like to thank you for choosing the Glance L Slow Combustion Wood Heater, which represents, in design and style, a significant improvement on typical wood stoves. Your new Stove is, perhaps, the most advanced solid fuel heating system known today. Owning a HERGOM Stove displays an exceptional sense of quality.
The surface of your heater is protected by a coating of special high temperature resistant paint, that requires curing. When lighting the fireplace for the first few times, the paint will normally emit some fumes, we therefore recommend ventilating the room well, until the paint is fully cured.
