    BRUNNER heating inserts are designed and optimized for closed opera­ tion. Stoves and fireplaces from Ulrich Brunner GmbH are designed for periodic burning. It means that always a minimal amount of firewood has to be loaded and the combustion air must be adjusted according to the follow­...
  • Page 12 Heating between seasons devices cannot be modified. Structural changes to the building If changes are planned and made in or on the building, the conditions for safe and proper operation of the fireplace can be significantly disrupted. The prerequisites for safe operation of the fireplace must therefore be checked by a specialist in the event of changes.

Door sealing ropes BRUNNER is using only high­quality door sealing ropes, which are exactly adapted to the requirements of our heating devices. Yet the door sealings are wear parts, and therefore are not covered by our product warranty.

    05 FUEL AND HEATING POWER The standard combustion process "green"has been optimized to enhance their performance and reduce emissions. You can support our efforts to protect our environment by respecting the following recommendations for low­emission heating: Use only dry, natural wood with a residual humidity factor below 20 %, or wood briquettes according to DIN EN 17225­3.

  • Page 16 Most suitable for use in open fireplaces are all types of hardwood, like beech or birch. Softwood species (conifers) have a closed­cell structure which is bursting during combustion, causing glowing embers to be thrown out of the fireplace. Hardwood is burning more calm and evenly. You can control the heat radiation intensity by volume of wood and the intervals for stoking up.

  • Page 24: Adjusting Of Combustion Air

    09 ADJUSTING OF COMBUSTION AIR Fireplace inserts have an opening in the floor area through which the required combustion air flows in. The air is either supplied via an outside air connection (air connection box) or directly from the room. During combustion, the combustion air volume is adjusted by a control air lever on the fireplace.
  • Page 25: The Heating Process

    10 THE HEATING PROCESS green The new standard of BRUNNER fireplaces is called “green”. With the right fuel and the right operation, a BRUNNER fireplace can be operated with the lowest possible emissions. The combustion chamber is designed as a trough firebox without a grate or ash box.

Removal of deflector plates Deflector plates are installed above the combustion chamber and can (OPTIONAL) be removed without any tools through the open fireplace door. Remove the ash deposits from deflector plates with a vacuum cleaner. A coat of dry, powder­like deposits will build up with time on the inflow The lower deflector consists of two plates which are placed close to side of the catalytic converter modules.

We recommend cleaning with a vacuum/ash cleaner with brush attach­ ment. Doing so, it is possible to remove and evacuate the adhering CAUTION: The catalytic converter unit can be cleaned only in dry particles sufficiently.

    15 DISPOSAL Recycling of catalytic converters containing precious Fireplace inserts contain valuable materials that must be recycled. Observe metals the applicable national legal regulations for disposal. Oxidative catalytic converters, as installed in modern wood stoves, are very effective at reducing emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.
