If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of installation then please seek specialist guidance and use appropriate protective equipment. 3.1.11 Metal Parts When installing or servicing this stove, proper care should be taken to avoid the possibility of personal injury.
4.7 Hearths: The FW5C stove require a 125mm thick non-combustible constructional hearth beneath them to protect the building, this can include any solid non-combustible floor. A non-combustible superimposed hearth forming an apron of at least 225mm at the front of the stove and 150mm on either side must also be provided. The superimposed hearth must not be less than 12mm thick and must have a clearly defined edge (change of level) to discourage placing of any combustible materials on or partially over it.
Advise the user on what to do should smoke or fumes be emitted into the room from the stove – see Safety Notes section. The user should be warned that they MUST use a suitable fireguard in the presence of children, aged and/or infirm persons. 5.0 Technical Data Model FW5C 66.5 Appliance weight (Kg): Efficiency (%) on Wood fuel 80.4...
Tertiary Air This appliance is also fitted with a preheated tertiary air system controlled via a sliding control located on the bottom left of the stove just below the door (same as secondary air). Moving towards the wide side of the arrow increases the tertiary air supply whilst moving towards the narrow side reduces it.
See also: section entitled ‘Lighting the Stove’. Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore only necessary to remove surplus ash from the stove occasionally. If the grate is completely clear, place a few handfuls of ash into the slots in the grate to help the firebed build up.
6.7 Shutting Down The stove will normally shut down by itself as the fuel is consumed. In order to shut down the stove for other reasons, close the primary air controls (if open), then close the secondary air control. If the controls are left in this position, the fire will eventually burn out.
Frequently Asked Questions 1 Do stoves require a chimney? All of our multi fuel and wood burning stoves require a suitable chimney or professionally installed flue system. 2 How do I clean the chimney? You will require a chimney sweep to clean the chimney. It is essential to provide a dedicated chimney cleaning access door when installing the flue of the stove in some situations.
