Maintenance

Small maintenance
• It is advisable to leave an ash layer of two to three
centimetres. It will protect the fire plate.
• Clean the exterior of the stove with a damp cloth
that does not give off fluff. Do not use any aggressive
cleansing agents or abrasives.
• Clean the cold glass pane with a cleaning agent for
ceramic cooking rings. Do not touch the clean glass
with your fingers. Finger marks burn into the glass.
• Oil the hinges and the door fastener once in a while.
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents or abrasives
to maintain your stove.
When the stove is not used
• Close all doors and air inlets in summer season
• Place absorbent salt inside the stove if it is stored in a
humid space.
Yearly maintenance
• Have your chimney properly cleaned by a qualified
chimney sweep every year; this is for safety reasons
and any fire insurance.
• Have the flue gas outlet and the combustion air supply
of the double-walled flue tube system checked for air-
tightness every year.
• Have the complete tube system checked every year;
this includes the roof or wall ducts and the outlet just
outside the wall.
• Have the valves and/or flaps checked for their
functioning.
• Have the sealing of doors and glass panes checked for
wear and tear.

Safety

A WANDERS wood-burning stove gives you a
comfortable and a safe source of heat in your home. Fire
safety starts with a proper installation and a properly
working flue tube. Your installer must therefore comply
with the installation instructions as listed on page 24 and
further. To burn your stove safely, the following points
are important:
1. Burn your stove as much as possible with a closed
door; it increases the output and is better for the
environment.
2. Prevent small children or the infirm from getting too
close to a burning stove and do not leave them alone
in the room when the stove is burning. You could use
a fire-screen.
3. Do not pour or put combustible liquids and materials
in the stove, as it may damage the fireplace beyond
repair.
4. If the floor around the fireplace is made of combustible
material you must use a floor slab. The floor slab must
22
have a minimum size of:
- 50 cm measured from the fireplace on the front side
of the door:
- 30 cm measured from the fireplace on all sides from
the door:.
5. Do not place any combustible materials, such as
curtains, wooden objects (cupboards, paintings) close
to the fireplace or the flue tube. A minimum distance
of 80 cm measured from the exterior of the stove and
the flue tube is required.
6. Never cover the chimney breast or mantelpiece with
combustible material (e.g. paper covering).
7. Please bear in mind the points of the section on 'the
best way to burn your stove', on page 21.
8. Have your stove repaired only by a certified installer
and with original parts.
