Combustion Air Supply; Convection Air; Fire Protection Outside The Radiation Range; Fire Protection Within The Radiation Range - Haas+Sohn EN13229-W Installation And Operating Manual

Caution! Wood it not a slow-burning fuel so that
continuous heating of the fireplace with fuel
overnight is not possible.
The fireplace insert is intended for the burning of
dry billet wood with a maximum water content of
30% of the dry weight. Billet wood should be
stored in airy and dry places for 2 years.
Excessively moist wood increasingly results in
smouldering with tar and condensate formation
which can damage the chimney. At any rate,
excessive device contamination occurs. The billet
wood length should be around 33 or 50 cm.
If incorrect or excessively moist fuel is used a
chimney fire can occur because of deposits in
the chimney. Immediately
openings in the stove and inform the fire
brigade. Once the chimney has burnt out have
it inspected for cracks or leaks by an expert.
Wood is a highly de-gassing fuel and requires a lot
of top air (secondary air). Light or slow-burning
control with this fuel is not possible. The heat
output in the combustion of wood is always
determined by the amount charged.
Firing of properly dried wood is the most
economical and most environmentally friendly
combustion since the calorific value of fresh wood
is substantially less than that of dry wood.
The burning of waste, especially plastic, packaging
material, coated and treated wood harms your
fireplace insert and is additionally prohibited by the
Federal Emission Protection Law. Brush wood,
paper and small wood pieces must only be used
for lighting.
Caution: Never use easily combustible liquids
such as petrol, spirits for lighting and always
keep such liquids away from your fireplace
insert.
When operating the device ensure that adequate air
is supplied to the room from the outside.

11. Use and start-up:

11.1 Initial start-up:

When using the fireplace insert for the first time
burn it with moderate output to avoid possible
damages due to heating it up too quickly
(especially drying of the refractory brick lining). On
initial heating, smell and smoke will develop due to
the curing of the surface coating. Ensure the room
is well ventilated during initial start-up.

11.2 Lighting:

The fireplace insert is charged with fuel through
the firebox door.
Initially place 3 to 4 wood billets (approx. 2.0 to 2.5
kg) on the firebox floor or grate, uncoated paper on
10
close all air

10.2 Combustion air supply:

With both the open and closed operation of the
fireplace carries a high demand for fresh air. Do not
change existing precautions for combustion air
supply. Ensure that the necessary combustion
airlines are open while the fireplace is operated.

10.3 Convection air:

To avoid heat congestion the convection air inlet
and outlet grilles must always be open during
heating operation.
10.4 Fire protection outside the radiation
range:
No objects of combustible building materials (e.g.
shelves) must be placed closer to the open fireplace
than a distance of 5 cm.

10.5 Fire protection within the radiation range:

Seen from the firebox opening forward and to the
sides, no combustible components must be
present (e.g. furniture, carpets, flowers etc.) in a
range of at least 80 cm.

10.6 Protection against burns:

It is imperative to note that there are hot surfaces or
operating handles present on heating devices which
are in operation. Please use the enclosed protective
glove to operate the fireplace. Presence in the 80
cm radiation range is only advisable to charge the
fuel, prolonged presence there can result in skin
burns. Keep children away from fireplaces in
operation.
top, cardboard or an igniting cube, brushwood,
small wood pieces or briquette pieces on top of
this. Open all existing air control dampers to the
maximum. After igniting, close the firebox door.
Then set the air control dampers in accordance
with the instructions on the enclosed Equipment
Sheet.
Your fireplace insert is equipped with a typical
design flat firing system which means that only one
layer of fuel must be charged on the basic embers.
Please note that the quantity, the size of the
pieces and the kind of the wood charged has a
direct influence on the heat output.
When feeding excessive fuel quantities your fire
insert can be heated in excess of what is intended
by the design. This can damage the fireplace
insert, other parts of the chimney of the building
itself. Never charge more than the stated fuel
quantities at one time on the existing basic
embers.
