  • Page 34: Operation Instructions

    OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 5.1 Fuel The Elegance 40 is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods (moisture content below 20%), as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods. The following are a few signs indicating that firewood is sufficiently dry for use: (a) cracks on the ends and surface of the logs, (b) lighter in weight, and (c) color (yellow/grey).

  • Page 35: Operating The Combustion Air Control

    5.3 Operating the Combustion Air Control The burn rate and the heat output are related to the amount of air entering into the firebox. The combustion air control of the Elegance 40 has two components: the Activator and the Burn Rate Selector (see Section 2.3). When starting the fire or when adding a new charge of wood, the fireplace needs additional air in order to establish a good fire.
