This instruction manual has been developed to ensure optimum performance from your Kalora wood heater.
WOOD HEATER SAFETY When properly maintained and operated your wood heater should give you many years of service, however there are important safety aspects of these products that you need to be aware of when operating a wood heater. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR WOOD HEATER You need to consider the following to ensure the safe operation of your wood heater: - Provision of adequate air to support efficient combustion of the fuel. - A well sealed flue/chimney system, hereinafter referred to as the “flue system”. - The protection of combustible materials in proximity of the wood heater.

OPERATING YOUR WOOD HEATER CONTROLS AND THEIR USE Air Slide to control primary air intake CLOSED OPEN Latch to open door Air Slide (push in and pull out) FUEL Your wood heater is designed to burn dry hardwood only. It is NOT designed to burn the following: •...
AIR CONTROLS Your wood heater needs air to burn the fuel. Kalora wood heaters draw air from multiple areas to maximize efficiency. The air is supplied through an adjustable primary air slide at the front right side of the wood heater and secondary non-adjustable air through the rear of the firebox and air-tube.
WOOD HEATER MAINTENANCE CHECK YOUR WOOD HEATER REGULARLY Initially, we recommend you check your flue system at least once per month. After the first few months you will notice a pattern of soot and creosote build up and you can then determine an inspection interval for checking soot and creosote build up that is suitable for your wood heater installation.
Only ever clean the glass when the wood heater is cold. For best results select from Kalora’s range of glass cleaning products. When loading fuel into the wood heater, always make sure it is not protruding out through the door opening, as this may break the glass when you close the door.
TROUBLESHOOTING Many people under estimate the importance of using a professional installer with experience in wood heating who adheres to Australian Standards to install their wood fire. If you are having issues with your wood fire not working the way you think it should, we implore you to speak to your installer first;...
TROUBLESHOOTING ..continued SMOKE IN ROOM If the wood heater is properly installed it should not emit any smoke into your room. Should this happen, check that your room is not air tight. This can easily be checked by opening a door or window. If the smoking stops you need to provide an additional air supply into the room.
