Chimney Fire - KAWMET p2 Bedienungsanleitung Und Garantiekarte

7. Maintenance Policies
Ash removing
The ash must be removed when it is necessary. Excess ash obstructs air flow, which is needed for combustion, and can cause
hearth overheating and even damage.. Ashes should be place into a metal container equipped with a tight lid. The container should
be placed on non-flammable surface away from flammable materials until completely cool
Cleaning the glass
Cleaning the glass should be done when the furnace is warm. On the market there are many cleaning solvents to remove
debris. Refer to the owner's manual. Do not use abrasive cleaners. The door is always closed with a handle. Do not light the fire
too close to the window. Do not use the stove if the glass is broken. Do not use flammable liquids, grease or other unsuitable
preparations to facilitate lighting.
Cleaning the chimney
When wood burns slowly is formed a black carbon containing organic substances which react with water vapor that is emitted
by the wood, thereby, the walls of the chimney when cold precipitate forms creosote. If the sediment is formed flame lights up with
a very high temperature. Regularly check the build-up of creosote on it to determine the frequency of cleaning the chimney. Please
note that the combustion is more intense the build-up of creosote is less. Consequently, during periods of warm, you will need to
clean the pores and in the winter it will be sufficient cleaning done once every two months.
8. Glass installation instructions
The glass in the frame should not be too tight. After installation must be possible to move the glass in the frame. This is
necessary because the glass and metal have different coefficients of thermal expansion and too tightly attached window has been
destroyed.

The maximal temperature of the continuous heating is about 800 ° C. The average temperature in the stove operates on the
glass is about 450 ° C. This leaves a very large available reserves and crack windows can not be caused by overheating.

9. Chimney fire

Too infrequent cleaning of the chimney or burning of wet wood, may result in chimney fire caused by inflammation of creosote
(inflammable substance emitted when wet wood is burned). Distinctive symptoms of the chimney fire are: smell of the flue gas (soot)
in the building, alarming, previously unheard sounds in the chimney, a large increase of the chimney temperature, sparks or flames
coming out from the chimney.
In case of the chimney fire, you must:
• immediately call the Fire Brigade
• extinguish the fire in the stove as much as possible, using sand or soil
• do not extinguish the fire with water, since the rapid cooling of the chimney and evaporation of water can cause cracks and
spread of the fire
• cut off the chimney air supply – close the door, close the primary air intake and secondary air intake (if possible)
• Once the fire is extinguished, chimney sweep company should carry out an inspection of chimney technical condition,
before you light the fire in the stove again.
