What to do if the fire will not light in my Esse Stove?
If your Esse Stove's fire will not light, it could be due to insufficient combustion air; try increasing the setting of the air controller. Another reason might be wet wood logs; ensure you're using wood logs with a moisture content of 15-20%. Also, the flue draft might be too low, consult with your installer to rectify this.
Why does the fire burn too quickly in my Esse Stove?
If the fire in your Esse Stove burns too quickly, it could be due to several reasons. First, there might be too much combustion air, so try reducing the setting of the air controller. Second, the wood logs might be overly dry; aim to use wood logs with 15-20% moisture content. Finally, a high flue draft could be the culprit, and you should consult with your installer to rectify this.
Why does my Esse Stove emit fumes into the room?
If fumes are emitting into the room from your Esse Stove, it could be due to a blocked flue; check and remove any blockage. Alternatively, there might be a downdraft in the flue, consult with your installer to add a flue cowl or explore other solutions.
