2.3 Connection to a brick chimney

If the stove is being connected to a brick chimney, the rear outlet should be used, or a curved flue pipe via

the top outlet. After measurement, a hole is made in the chimney in which the pipe sleeve is placed and

fireplace mortar is used to seal it in place. The stove is placed in position and the flue pipe is put in place. A

thin gasket is placed between the flue pipe and the pipe sleeve to seal the joints. The flue pipe should

protrude 5–10 cm into the pipe sleeve, but must not block the opening in the chimney (see the illustration

below).

The wood burning stove can be connected to a chimney to which other heat sources are connected.

3.0 Lighting a fire in the wood burning stove

3.1 Important safety information

• The wood burning stove will become warm during use and therefore it should be treated with all

necessary caution.

• Never keep easily combustible fluids such as petrol in the vicinity of the wood burning stove – and

never use easily combustible fluids to light the fire in the wood burning stove.

• Never empty the ash drawer when the wood burning stove is warm. Embers may still be found in the

ash drawer for up to 24 hours after the fire has gone out. Please wait to empty the ash drawer until

you are sure that there are no embers in the ash.

• The door should be kept closed while the wood burning stove is in use. While lighting the fire, the

door can stand ajar for the first few minutes.

• In the event of a chimney fire: Close all the dampers on the wood burning stove and call the fire-

fighting service.

3.2 Recommended fuels?

We recommend the use of split hardwood that has been stored outdoors under cover for at least 1 year.

Wood that has been stored indoors has a tendency to become too dry and will burn too quickly. The

wood should preferably be felled in the winter, when a lot of the moisture in the wood will have been

drawn down into the roots. In order to achieve optimum combustion, the wood’s moisture level should not

exceed 18 %, which roughly corresponds to storing the wood under cover outdoors for one year. The

moisture level of the wood can be measured using a moisture meter or by applying washing up liquid to

one end of the log and blowing air in the other end. If the wood is dry enough, soap bubbles will appear.

The wood should be chopped into logs with a diameter of approx. 10 cm and a log length of max. 39 cm.

Correct firing provides optimal heat output and maximum economy. At the same time, correct firing

prevents environmental damage in the form of smoke and malodorous fumes and also reduces the risk of

chimney fires. Well seasoned wood fuel is essential for correct use. Make sure your fuel is kept dry. If the

fuel is wet, a large proportion of the heat will be used to vaporize the water, and this energy will

disappear up the chimney. It is clearly not only uneconomical to fire with wet fuel but also, as mentioned

above, increases the risk of producing soot, smoke and other environmentally damaging by-products.

Burning varnished wood, impregnated wood, chipboard, paper and other waste is strictly forbidden. Burning

these materials will damage the environment, the wood burning stove and your own health.
