Page 10: Fuel Overloading
Phone: 01256 830099 Unit 22 (Office) and Unit 26 When you light the fire, you will want all vents fully open and in most cases the door ajar slightly. However, this will depend on how well the chimney is drawing. When the fire is established to some degree the door can be closed and the vents gradually closed. If you close the vent down too early, before the fire is established, it could go out and/or increase smoke output. -

A hot chamber will increase the stoves efficiency and make refueling the fire very easy. If the temperature in the stove is too low, the glass will begin to go black and excess smoke will be produced. Often the key to a hot firebox is the burning of quality dry fuel.

Page 18: Broken Fire Bricks
Phone: 01256 830099 Unit 22 (Office) and Unit 26 BROKEN FIRE BRICKS It is common for vermiculite bricks to break. They are fully heat resistant but can be quite fragile. The most common bricks to break are the base and back bricks as these take the brunt of abuse. To ensure the longevity of your fire bricks, please ensure that you gently place fuel in the fire and do not over stack fuel. -
Page 19: Broken / Crazed Glass
Phone: 01256 830099 Unit 22 (Office) and Unit 26 BROKEN / CRAZED GLASS The glass used in all fires is fully approved heat resistant ceramic glass. This glass will not break through heat but can easily break if struck with a log or similarly hard object. This is why the glass is not covered by any manufacturer of stoves. Common causes for glass breakages are customers closing the door when a log is still sticking out. -
