Stoking:
Use the amount of fuel previously specified and ensure that the wood has the prescribed size. Do not pack the
wood too closely - this is important in order to obtain an optimal airflow the combustion material. Close the door
after approx. 2 min.
Heating Capacity:
By optimal heating conditions
By less optimal heating conditions
By poor heating conditions
If the heating is interrupted for more than 8 hours, the heating capacity is reduced by 25%.
Output:
The output of the ANDERSEN stoves is 6 kW. This is obtained by a chimney draught of 10 Pa.
Room Ventilation:
During the combustion, oxygen taken from the room air is used. In order to get sufficient air for the combustion,
leave the windows half open in well-insulated rooms or have a fresh-air intake installed.
Soot Free Glasses:
The stove is constructed to keep the glasses clean when the combustion air intake is fully opened. The more you
close the combustion air, the greater the risk of the glass sooting up. Whenever a new piece of wood is placed in
the stove, it is necessary to completely open the combustion air, and the air intake must not be reduced until such
time as the piece of wood is burning without producing any smoke but only a clear flame. Max. humidity 20%.
Fire Bricks:
Little cracks may arise in the firebricks because of a minor content of water, especially if the stove is overheated
during the first firing. These cracks do not influence the efficiency of the stove and are not covered by the
guarantee.
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.
Ash Grate:
In general, the ash grate of ANDERSEN 4 should be closed when firing with wood and open when firing with
lignite briquettes. ANDERSEN 1 and ANDERSEN 8 are exclusively for wood burning.
