Elite L Elite R Data plate The data plate is located on the back of the stove and provides accurate identification of your model with a series of technical data and a serial number.
The exact requirements will be indicated by your installer or Nordic Fire dealer. - Nordic Fire built-in fireplaces are provided with a top connection. A rear connection is not possible. - The flue materials must maintain sufficient distance from combustible materials. The distances indicated on the rating plate and in this manual must be maintained.
- the casing of the built-in fireplace must have a vent for cold air (at the bottom of the casing) and a vent for hot air; Fire safety The inspection with distances to combustible materials was performed with an insulated flue. With uninsulated materials, it is wise to keep a greater distance.
Connection to the flue pipe The connection to the chimney should be provided and checked by a Nordic Fire dealer. The Nordic Fire dealer can check if the flue and chimney are sufficiently safe. In addition, he will check if the flue meets the valid regulations.
Flue requirements The flue system must meet the following characteristics: - the cross section of the flue must not be smaller than that of the connection to the stove and must not become narrower towards the chimney (adapters can be used to increase the diameter of the flue to the chimney);...

Important when connecting the chimney - the chimney must first be checked by the Nordic Fire installer for leaks and the condition of the chimney. - a masonry, uninsulated flue is not allowed! - a masonry flue must be lined with a suitable inner liner which is insulated. For example, with vermiculite granules.
(paint) of the pan. - for use in a Nordic Fire wood stove, only wood that is sufficiently dry, cleaved and clean is suitable. - do not use wet wood. This is wasted energy (50% less energy!) and it pollutes your stove and chimney, increasing the risk of chimney fire.
Some tips - wood should be stored split - firewood should be stored in a windy place protected from rain. - hardwood must dry longer than lighter woods. - damp wood is wasted energy. It pollutes your chimney and creates a nuisance in the area. Only wood that is suitable should be used in the wood stove.

If the external air supply is not connected, adequate ventilation should always be provided. To prevent smoke from the stove escaping into the room when the door is opened, a check is recommended: - about 10 seconds before opening the door, fully open the primary air regulator (air lever as far for ward as possible);...
STOKING THE STOVE Important: Read through before commissioning - check that the connection to the chimney is completely sealed. - the stove becomes very hot when in use. You should pay attention to small children, people with physical disabilities or pets. They may burn themselves on the stove. - take care not to place flammable materials near the stove.
NOTES: During the first hours of operation, it is recommended to operate the stove at a low load, i.e., up to 50% of the normal load. The first ignition may be accompanied by condensation on the inner walls of the combustion chamber.
Environmental & adverse climatic and transitional conditions Wood burning is a natural process that releases as much CO2 as it does during decay in the forest. However, poor combustion can release harmful fumes. That is why it is imperative that you, the user, fire correctly to avoid nuisance.
PROPER OPERATION Stoves are designed to provide maximum efficiency. A properly fired wood stove can achieve an efficiency of about 79%. This means you need less wood for the same amount of heat. In addition, a well-fired stove produces less smoke pollution. Some tips for optimal stoking pleasure: - always fire your stove with the door closed.
We recommend that maintenance be performed by a specialized company before the start of the heating season. If the stove is used only for a limited period of time, in unfavorable wind or climatic conditions, increased attention during commissioning is essential. After a longer period without firing, it is necessary to check the permeability of the flue.
Cleaning the glass window The Nordic Fire wood stove is constructed so that the secondary air supply ensures that the glass pane is cleaned. Due to the high temperature and this air supply, dirt particles are burned as much as possible.
Emptying the combustion chamber To empty the combustion chamber, you can use a canned hand duster. However, the stove must be completely cooled down. Also, no glowing particles should be present anymore. This can often take up to at least a day after the fire is extinguished. A standard vacuum cleaner is not recommended, as the filter gets clogged by the fine ash.

At the top of the stove is the baffle plate. After a certain time more and more ash will accumulate here. The retaining plate must be replaced in exactly the same way. It is important to do this carefully to avoid damaging the avoid damaging the chammoth.
