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
emanating 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.

Using the wood burning stove

Adjustment of the air damper - the damper has 3 settings
(see front of manual)
Position 1
The damper is almost closed meaning that there is a minimal air intake.
Position 2
Pull the lever until first click. This position gives full secondary air.
During normal stoking 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
Pull the lever until next click.
The air damper is completely open and gives full primary and secondary air. The posi-
tion 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 soot-free after the stove
has been used, the air regulation was set correctly and the wood was sufficiently dry.
