Pre-Season Check:

The chimney needs to be swept at least once a year.

The chimney must be checked at this stage for blockages before lighting i.e.: bird's nests

This is probably the time to have the chimney swept before the beginning of the seasons.

Before lighting at the beginning of the season or after prolonged shutdown periods, check the

door seals are in good condition; the steel insulating plates/fire bricks are in good condition and

baffle plate is in position.

If the stove has been used for a long period of time we suggest the chimney be swept twice a

year.

Notes

Down draughts

In adverse weather conditions a down draught may occur this could make the stove smoke, if

this should happen shut all the stove air controls.

If this occurs on a regular basis call in your engineer.

It is possible a chimney cowl could cure this problem.

Air vents

Check periodically that the internal and exterior ventilation grill is clear.

Servicing

All servicing must to be carried out by a qualified competent engineer on a regular basis.

No unauthorised modifications of the appliance should be carried out.

Use only replacement parts recommended by the manufacturer.

Fault finding

If the stove starts to emits fumes into the room:-

(1) Check there is no blockage or restriction in the flue.

(2) Check the external air vent is not blocked.

(3) Check the baffle plate has not dislodged itself from the stove.

(4) Call an engineer.

If the stove does not perform properly this is could be due to unseasoned/wet wood or too

much ash in the firebox.

In the case of the stove malfunctioning shut all vents, open the windows and let the residual

fuel in stove burn out.
