Page 7: Convection
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Convection Rais stoves are convection stoves. This means that the stove’s back and side panels are not overheated. Convection means that there is a circulation of air, which ensures that the heat is distributed more evenly throughout the entire room. The cold air is sucked in at the base of the stove and up through the convection channel, which runs along the stove’s combustion chamber. The heated air comes out at the top of the stove, which ensures a circulation of warm air throughout the room. The stoves are equipped with cool door handles a Rais special feature which means you could almost do away with gloves. Be aware, however, that all exterior surfaces become hot during use so take extreme care. Chimney In order for the stove to perform satisfactorily the chimney height must be sufficient to ensure an adequate draught of approximately 15 Pa so as to clear the products of combustion and prevent smoke problems into the room. NOTE: A chimney height of not less than 4.5 metres measured vertically from the outlet of the stove to the top of the chimney should be satisfactory. Alternatively the calculation procedure given in EN 133841 may be used as the basis for deciding whether a particular chimney design will provide sufficient draught. The outlet from the chimney should be above the roof of the building in accordance with the provisions of Building Regulations Approved Document J. If installation is into an existing chimney then it must be sound and have no cracks or other faults which might allow fumes into the house. Older properties, especially, may have chimney faults or the cross section may be too large i.e. more than 230 mm x 230 mm. Remedial action should be taken, if required, seeking expert advice, if necessary. If it is found necessary to line the chimney then a flue liner suitable for solid fuel must be used in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J. Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction and have been swept clean immediately before installation of the stove. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire. If there is no existing chimney then any new system must be to the designation described above and in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J. ... - Page 8 ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Any bend in the chimney or connecting fluepipe should not exceed 45°. 90° bends should not be used. Combustible material should not be located where the heat dissipating through the walls of fireplaces or flues could ignite it. Therefore when installing the stove in the presence of combustible materials due account must be taken of the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions. If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then a draught stabiliser should be fitted. Fitting of a draught stabiliser will affect the requirement for the permanent air supply into the room in which the stove is fitted in accordance with Approved Document J (see also combustion air supply). Adequate provision e.g. easily accessible soot door or doors must be provided for sweeping the chimney and connecting fluepipe where it is not intended for the chimney to be swept through the appliance. Chimney Fires If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not occur. However, if a chimney fire does occur turn off the stove immediately and isolate the mains electricity supply (if applicable), and tightly close the doors of the stove. This should cause the chimney fire to go out. If the chimney fire does not go out when the above action is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately. Do not relight the stove until the chimney and flue ways have been cleaned and examined by a professional. Hearth The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove and its chimney if the chimney is not independently supported. The weight of the stove is indicated in the brochure. The stove should preferably be installed on a noncombustible hearth of a size and construction that is in accordance with the provisions of the current Building Regula tions Approved Document J. The clearance distances to combustible material beneath, surrounding or upon the hearth and walls adjacent to the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions. If the stove is to be installed on a combustible floor surface, it must be covered with a noncombustible material at least 12mm thick, in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J, to a distance of 30 cm in front of the stove and 15 cm to each side measuring from the door of the combustion chamber.

Page 9: Installation
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Combustion air supply In order for the stove to perform efficiently and safely there must be an adequate air supply into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. The provision of air supply to the stove must be in accordance with current Building Regulations Approved Document J. An opening window is not appropriate for this purpose. Installation It is prohibited to carry out unauthorised alterations to the stove. There must be plenty of fresh air in the room where the stove is being installed, in order to ensure proper combustion. Note that any mechanical exhaust ventilation e.g. an extraction hood may reduce the air supply. Any air grilles must be placed in such a manner, that the air supply is not blocked. The stove is equipped with four convection air outlets, which may be connected with suitable air ducts to other rooms. Building Regulations Approved Document J gives specific guidance on the required permanent ventilation into the room for combustion air of solid fuel appliances. The floor structure must be able to carry the weight of the wood burning stove, as well as the weight of a chimney, if necessary. When you choose where to set up your RAIS wood burning stove, you should consider the heat distribution to the other rooms. This will enable you to get the best use out of your stove. The stove should be set up at a safe distance from inflammable materials. See the manufacturer's plate on the wood burning stove. Installation of stove: NOTE ! A decision must be made concerning the positioning of the inlets and outlets of the convection system. Discolouration of the wall above the doors and the convection air outlets may occur due to convected hot air. RAIS cannot take responsibility for any building work or consequential damage. The stove should be inspected for defects at receipt. 9 ... - Page 10 ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Operation of revolving base If the stove has a revolving base then please do the following: Push / pull the pedal / release arm, after which the stove can be turned at 30° intervals.

The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove. The chimney must be independently supported by wall brackets or a ceiling support plate. The weight of the stove is indicated in the brochure. The stove should always be installed on a noncombustible hearth of a size and construction that is in accordance with the provisions of the current UK Building Regulations Approved Document J. If the stove is to be installed on a wooden floor, it must be covered with a noncombustible material at least 12mm thick, in accordance with UK Building Regulations Approved Document J, to a distance of 300 mm in front of the stove and 150 mm to each side measuring from the door of the combustion chamber. The clearance distances to combustible material beneath, surrounding or upon the hearth and walls adjacent to the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in UK Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions. Commissioning and handover Ensure all parts are fitted in accordance with the instructions. On completion of the installation allow a suitable period of time for any fire cement and mortar to dry out, before lighting the stove. Once the stove is under fire check all seals for soundness and check that the flue is functioning correctly and that all products of combustion are vented safely to atmosphere via the chimney terminal. On completion of the installation and commissioning ensure that the operating instructions for the stove are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the customer on the correct use of the appliance and warn them to use only the recommended fuel for the stove. Advise the user what to do should smoke or fumes be emitted from the stove. The customer should be warned to use a fireguard to BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS 6539) in the presence of children, aged and/or infirm persons. CO Alarm Building regulations require that when ever a new or replacement fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass appliance is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide alarm must be fitted in the same room as the appliance.

Page 20: Operating Instructions
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Please note that HETAS Appliance Approval only covers the use of dry seasoned wood logs on this appliance. HETAS Approval does not cover the use of other fuels either alone or mixed with the wood logs, nor does it cover instructions for the use of other fuels. Fuel The stove is designed and approved in accordance with EN 13240 and NS 3058 for stoking split, dried firewood. The firewood must have a water content of 1522% and its max. length should be the length of the combustion chamber minus 5060 mm. Stoking with wet firewood causes both soot, environmental pollution and bad fuel economy. Freshly cut wood contains approx. 5070% water and is thoroughly unsuitable for stoking. Allow at least 1 year of storage time for newly cut wood before using. Wood with a diameter of more than 100 mm should be split. Regardless of wood size, it should always have at least one surface area free of bark. We do not recommend stoking with painted, laminated or impregnated wood, wood with a synthetic surface, painted refuse wood, chipboard, plywood, domestic waste, paper briquettes and pit coal, as this will produce malodorous smoke, which could be poisonous. When firing with the abovementioned items and amounts larger than those recommended, the stove is subjected to a larger amount of heat, which results in a higher chimney temperature and lower efficiency. This can result in the stove and chimney becoming damaged and would void the warranty. The calorific value of the firewood is closely connected to the moisture level. Moist firewood has a low heat value. The more water the wood contains, the more energy it takes for this water to vaporise, resulting in this energy being lost. ONLY USE RECOMMENDED FUELS The following table shows the calorific value of different types of wood, which have been stored for 2 years and which have a residual moisture of 15 17%. 3 Wood Kg dry wood pr m compared to beech/oak Hornbeam 640 110% Beech and oak 580 ... -
Page 21: Drying And Storage
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Drying and storage Drying wood takes time: proper air drying takes approximately 2 years. Here are some tips: Store the wood sawn, split and stacked in an airy, sunny place, which is protected against rain (the south side of the house is particularly suitable). Store the firewood stacks at a hand's breadth apart, as this ensures that the air flowing through takes the moisture with it. Avoid covering the firewood stacks with plastic, as this prevents the moisture from escaping. It is a good idea to bring the firewood into the house 23 days before you need it. Regulating the combustion air All RAIS stoves are equipped with a onehanded operating lever for regulating the damper. The stovespecific regulating mechanisms can be seen on the diagrams. Primary air is the combustion air added to the primary combustion zone, i.e. the bed of glowing embers. This air, which is cold, is only used in the lighting stage. Secondary air is the air which is added in the gas combustion zone, i.e. air which contributes to the combustion of the pyrolysis gasses (preheated air, which is used for the cleaner glass system and combustion). This air is sucked through the damper under the combustion chamber and is preheated through the side channels and then emitted as hot scaveng ing air onto the glass. The hot air rinses the glass and keeps it sootfree. The tertiary channel, which can be seen at the top of the combustion chamber towards the back, serves to combust the final gas residues. By setting the interval between position 1 and 2, the energy content in the firewood is used optimally, as there is oxygen for combustion and for the burning of the pyrolysis gasses. When the flames are a clear yellow the damper has been set correctly. Finding the correct position comes with time after you have used for stove for a while. It is not recommended that you turn it down completely. A mistake commonly made is shutting the damper too early because it feels too hot. This results in dark smoke ema nating from the chimney and in the calorific value of the firewood not being used to its fullest. Room ventilation and stoves There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can cause the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room. The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely and efficiently. In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer may have fitted a perma nent air supply vent into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This air vent should not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed. 21 ... -
Page 22: Adjusting The Air Damper
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca Adjusting the air damper. The damper has 3 settings. Position 1 The damper is almost closed meaning that there is a minimal air intake. Position 2 Push the lever to the right until it stops. This position gives full secondary air. During normal use the lever is set between position 1 and 2. When the flames are clear and yellow, the damper is set correctly, i.e. resulting in a slow/optimal burning. Position 3 Push the lever upwards and to the right. The air damper is completely open and gives full primary and secondary air. This position is for the lighting stage and is not used under normal operation. Control If the ash is white and the walls in the combustion chamber are soot free after the stove has been used, the air regulation was set correctly and the wood was sufficiently dry. 22 ... -
Page 23: First Usage
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca First usage A careful start pays off. Start with a small fire, so that the wood burning stove can get accustomed to the high temperature. This gives the best start and any damage is avoided. Be aware that a strange but harmless odour and smoke concoction may emanate from the surface of the stove, the first time you fire up. This is because the paint and materials need to harden. The odour disappears quickly, but you should check the ventilation and draught, if possible. See also, the IMPORTANT warning notice below about persistent fumes. During this process you must be careful not to touch the painted surfaces, and it is recommended that you regularly open and close the door to prevent the door seal from sticking. The stove may also produce "clicking noises" during heating and cooling, caused by the large temperature differences which the material is subjected to. Never use any type of liquid fuel for kindling or maintaining the fire. You could be at risk of explosion. The stove gets very hot when in use, always wear protective gloves when tending the stove. If the stove has not been used for a while, follow the steps as if you were using it for the first time. IMPORTANT Warning Note! Properly installed, operated and maintained this appliance will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes from deashing and refuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist, the following immediate actions should be taken: (a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room. (b) Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. (c) Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required. (d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice. IMPORTANT Warning Note! Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight. IMPORTANT Safety advice! When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or infirm persons are ... - Page 24 ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca To light the stove, use alcohol briquettes or similar, as well as approximately 2kg of firewood, split into kindling sticks. Set the air damper to the fully open position. Tips before firing up: Open a door or window close to the wood burning stove. If there is ‘storm’ in the stove coming from the chimney it is advisable to place a screwed up piece of newspaper between the upper baffle plate and the chimney. Light the paper and wait until you hear a ‘rumbling’ noise in the chimney. This means that there is definitely a draught in the chimney and you should avoid smoke coming back into the room. Light the fire and shut the door, leave the door ajar approximately 1015mm. 24 ...

Page 26: Maintenance
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Poleo and Rais Epoca MAINTENANCE Cleaning and care The wood burning stove and the chimney must be serviced by a chimney sweep twice a year. During cleaning and care, the stove must be cold. If the glass is sooty: Moisten a piece of paper or newspaper, dip it in the ash, and rub the sooty glass with it. Now rub with a dry piece of paper and the glass will become clean. As an alternative you can use glass cleaner, which you can buy from you RAIS distributor. Clean the exterior with a dry sponge or a soft brush. Cleaning the combustion chamber: Scrape/shovel the ash out and store it in a nonflammable container until it has cooled down. You can dispose of ash with your normal household waste or recycle on the garden. REMEMBER!! Never remove all the ashes from the combustion chamber the wood will burn at its best with a layer of ashes of approx. 20 mm. Prolonged periods of nonuse: If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged period of time then it should be given a thorough clean to remove ash and unburned fuel residues. To enable a good flow of air through the appliance to reduce condensation and subsequent damage, leave the air controls fully open. Prior to a new heating season, it should be checked that the chimney and flue pipe connector are not blocked. Chimney cleaning The chimney should be swept at least twice a year. It is important that the flue connection and chimney are swept prior to lighting up after a prolonged shutdown period. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney will require sweeping after a month of continuous operation. This is a precaution to ensure that any “softer” deposits left from the open fire usage have not been loosened by the higher flue temperatures gener ated by the closed stove. In situations where it is not possible to sweep through the stove the installer will have pro vided alternative means, such as a soot door. After sweeping the chimney the stove flue outlet and the flue pipe connecting the stove to the chimney must be cleaned with a flue ... -
