  • Page 2 2. The heater has been installed by a licensed installer. 3. A certificate of compliance has been issued. (Only required in some states.) 4. The extended warranty card has been submitted to Euro fireplaces within 2 weeks of the installation.
  • Page 3 To get the most efficiency out of your heater, there is no need to use more than 3kgs of firewood per load for a Falun or Andorra heater, or 6kgs per load for larger Designer Inbuilt units. The size of the wood used is important; pieces sized approximately 300mm in length and 150 in diameter will give you the best heat.

  • Page 4: Things To Consider

    THINGS TO CONSIDER • Euro Fireplaces have a compact firebox with a large viewing window. The heaters are built for high wood burning efficiency (around 70 to 80%). A much smaller amount of firewood is needed compared to traditional Australian wood heaters with similar heat output.

  • Page 5: General Safety Instructions

    GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Like all fireplaces your unit will get hot when in use, particularly the glass. Please be aware of this and ensure that children are always supervised around the fireplace. A fireplace surround is a good idea when there are children present. The heater must stand on a hearth with adequate bearing capacity.

  • Page 6: Air Control

    LIGHTING YOUR FIREPLACE AIR CONTROL The air control of a Euro Fireplace consists of primary (beneath the fire) and secondary (above the fire) air. The fire will require all air controls at 100% to start but once you enter the main burning phase only secondary should be used. On a single control handle heater, closing 50% will close primary and leave secondary open.
  • Page 7 COMBUSTION PHASE • Place two similarly sized logs (approx.30cm long, 12cm thick) on to the bed of hot coals. • Keep the air regulator at 50% open. Secondary air only. • Using properly dried firewood, and following the above steps, the logs will ignite within 60 seconds.

  • Page 8: Fresh Air Intake

    GENERAL INFORMATION FRESH AIR INTAKE Euro Fireplaces models rely on surrounding air to achieve a high standard of combustion. As such, an adequate intake of oxygen is essential. In an energy efficient houses (eg. tight windows and doors), air intake may be low and this may reduce draw.

  • Page 9: Recommended Fuel

    CONVECTION Euro Fireplaces heat your home in two ways; with radiant heat as well as natural convection. Natural convection means the heater will suck the cold air from around your house and naturally convert it into warm air. It is important that the heater is not allowed to draw cold air from outside or from rooms you do not want to heat.

  • Page 10: Cleaning And Maintenance

    In most of our heaters the baffle plate can be removed to clean that area out. Any heater in the Andorra range does not have a removable baffle plate; these heaters can be cleaned from a access panel at the back of the heater.

    IMPORTANT OPERATION NOTES Do not use flammable liquids, painted, treated or processed wood such as particleboards etc. These materials can cause excessive damage to the fireplace and flue. Use only dry wood with no more than 20% moisture content. Anything above this moisture content can cause gases that can be corrosive to metal and cause damage to the fireplace and flue.
