The wood stove may be connected to chimneys which are also used for other
purposes. To this end, the specific local conditions shall be assessed by a fitter
and/or chimney sweep.
Register
If your chimney has a register, it should
have a forced aperture of min. 20 cm
2
.
Mounting of Smoke Baffle Plates
Below, it has been shown how the smoke
baffle plates are to be placed when viewing
a section in the stove from the side.
Each smoke baffle plate is to be removed
separately. Both smoke baffle plates are
removed by lifting up at one side after which they may come clear at the other
side and be taken down into the combustion chamber and out of the door.
Similarly, they are put in place by leading them up slanting-wise at one side,
and then at the other side, and they are then put into place in the middle.
Combustion Air Supply
It is important for good and clean burning that adequate air be supplied to the
fire. To allow for this, it is, however, a condition that air be supplied to the
room in which the stove has been set up.
Certainly most rooms will have sufficient air, not least if some of the doors
between the rooms of the house are open. In special cases, an air valve may
have to be put in the exterior wall of the room in which the stove has been put
up.
Floor
When placing your new Lotus stove on the floor, it should be put on a non-
combustible plate, for instance of steel or stone material. The plate should be so
large that it will reach a minimum of 30cm in front of the stove, and 15cm at
each side of the fireplace opening.
